So have you kept it up? I'm on day 6 now and I feel great! Like I really might be able to do this again. Superbowl will be tough but you can always bring yourself some odouls (no alcohol beer) and no-one will even be able to tell the difference.
As for the antianxiety drugs and fears of becoming addicted, I understand. With the gabapentin I already worry about this and if it is doing the same thing for me that alcohol used to. Thing is they haven't found it to have the addictive properties like xanax for instance. I do find I will get anxious if I don't take it but I think that's probably normal for an antianxiety med. It also works well for me because it does not have the depressive qualities that alcohol does for me and no hangovers.
Good luck with the superbowl softballjunkie, and if you think it's best you don't go, well then I support you. You CAN do this. Do you have any support from friends, family, AA members?
