I've been sober 13 months. Congrats again on 11 days....you made it through the first week!!! The headaches will pass....try having plenty of caffeine and sugar around. As our body goes through the withdrawl from alcohol, our sugar gets very low. You now have full permission to eat as much candy as you want. As far as going away, get that "it's going to be a problem" thought out of your head now and start thinking positively. You have made it through 11 days and headaches and probably some trouble sleeping without a drink. You can make it through this trip also. Think of it as the first trip sober. You can do it, quit doubting yourself. Take plenty of candy. =) Do you want to have to do these 11 days over? No? So keep the momentum going and do it a day at a time. That's how you did the first 11. Put 11 days together one day at a time. Welcome to the forums and keep us posted!!!
