Way to go Star! 5 days is a wonderful accomplishment. It does seem those first few are the hardest. But, take heart, it does get easier as time goes on. Sounds like you are doing the right things--not going to karaoke is a wise decision. As for the sleep, have you tried exercising? Don't do it too late at night or it might keep you awake. That always helps me. I also find a long hot shower to relax and then a little meditation helps me fall asleep.

I hope you get some rest soon! You have a great positive attitude and I look forward to hearing more from you....again, congrats on the 5.5 days!
