I'm at 3 days too!! We are in this thing together for I can really relate to having the anxiety and especially worried about the superbowl. It is not going to be the same without drinking. Makes me feel sad.
Anyhow just wanted to congratulate you on your 3 days. Good for you!! You can do this, you shall overcome. <3
Edited to add: I have been taking gabapentin 3 times a day and it has helped a lot with the anxiety. It's supposed to be a PRN up to 3 times a day but I just started taking it regularly. There are no side effects for me so this has been great! I'm really thankful for my pdoc for putting me on that med. Do you take anything for anxiety?
