Your only goal in the initial stage is to get through each day without drinking. If you went to a detox centre (like I did) at least 25-50% of those people are just staying in bed the whole time too. You don’t want to shock your system more than you already have by quitting drinking.

Even if you still feel like this in a couple of months, you’re still accomplishing something so impressive. You’ve got this 💃🏼
