I have never really considered myself an alcoholic, but I have gone like a week straight of drinking at least 3 beers per night. Now that might not seem like a lot to you, but recently I culminated my week straight drinking experience with 2 nights of hardcore hardcore drunkenness and then went cold turkey. Not the best idea, but I figured what the hell... When I went through withdrawal, the depression was honestly worst at the 3 day marker. Not day 2. Day 4 and 5 I swear i was still feeling depressed and after a full week, it was seriously amazing at how much energy and motivation and clearheadedness (is that a word?) I had! And that day 3 and 4 sucked BIG TIME!!! So just hang in there... you'll start to feel good in a few more days. Your digestion and immune system will start getting back to normal and that will help you feel better. Drinking every day sucks is no good... I still have nothing at all against alcohol or getting hammered every so often but every day messes with your brain too much. You're doing the right thing.
