Congrats!!
Time goes by MUCH faster when you keep busy instead of just laying around thinking about how much pain youre in.

You are amazing. I have never heard of ANYONE going out and doing "construction work" on day THREE of WD. You are really tough! You will be fine. You have strength and what seems like an iron will. You can look forward to easier and easier days.

Keep reading the posts on this site I have found it incredibly helpful. Keep up the good work and keep posting.

Well done on 3 days, you sound positive and that is so important in this fight for sobriety too. It does get better with time, but we always have to keep our guard up. Your doing awesome. Stay strong, your almsot through the worst:)
