Congratulations!! You are doing great. You will have these withdrawal sysmtems for a while. Just ignore them and keep on moving one day at a time.

Keep up the good work...I know the nervousness very well. I'm into over 100 days (not really counting anymore). I go through the fast heart-beat, med side-effects, etc. Good job.
Thanks for this!

Way to go. Keep going to those meetings.

What were you using before you got clean and sober? If I may ask. The withdrawal symptoms are different. I went through meth withdrawal. Post Acute Meth Withdrawal Syndrome. (PAWS). My drug of choice was always alcohol though. I didn't like NA to much and stuck to AA.

I drank alcohol daily but never really turned down anything. A lot of pot. Alcohol is my main addiction tho.

You should be ok withdrawal wise at least compared to harder drugs. Pot takes a long time to completely get out of your fat cells. Sweating alot helps. There are withdrawal symptoms from that too but minor I think.

Congrats on staying clean & sober! It's not a race; we all stay sober one day at a time.
Thanks for this!
