24 hrs down.  Feel good (knock on wood)

I started resding again last night. Something to help take my mind off of things.

Someone mentioned it wasnt a good idea to workout now.

Anyone have a different opinion?

I would say that working out is a healthy distraction, but I can't speak from experience*

Start swimming for exercise.   Reading is an excellent way to keep your mind off the booze.

Working out will be an integral part to getting sober. You're body needs physical activity to help repair and regulate your brains use of dopamine and serotonin.

However, in the first little bit, you need to be very careful not to over exert yourself... alcohol is a downer, so you'll naturally be up as a result of quitting... anxiety, blood pressure, etc. You don't want to push it harder and cause everything to skyrocket. Thats how withdrawal seizures happen. Your CNS will naturally be amped up and working out hard can overamp it. You'll know, just don't push yourself hard.

Well I just bought a 1 liter bottle of vodka. I have a sensible battle plan.

I basically went 4 days without a drink. Didnt feel any withdrawl effects whatsoever.

It will take me a few days to finish this bottle, and then I will go a week without a drink etc...

The goal is to get to the point where I only drink in social situations.


I respect guys like Wes who stopped drinking altogether, but I feel that there is nothing wrong

With a few drinks once and awhile.  I will be shooting for 1 or 2 times a month, instead of everyday.  8)

Ill let you know when I finish this bottle.

My goal: Maybe a few drinks a month. Just like 90% of getbiggers do now.

What do you call drinking everyday for the past 2 1/2  to 3 years?

I call it close enough.
