So, I’m past the first 3 days.  Monumental?  I believe so.  I’m feeling magnificent about this, really.

I’ve been having a variety of withdrawl symptoms.  At night I’m having a hard time getting to sleep before 3am.  What did the easy cure for this used to be?  Alcohol.  Now, I find myself laying in bed playing games online, or something of that variety- and quite honestly I’m okay with staying up and sleeping later (or just getting far less sleep as a whole) as an alternative to the alcohol choice.

The first three days were very hard, it’s true- but I have a long journey still ahead of me.
