Topic - Changes I have noticed in my emotions

This is a place to share about your emotional changes which you have noticed since you removed alcohol from your diet.

Did you have difficulty substituting other beverages for alcohol in your diet? What did you do to overcome the habit of reaching for a beer, wine or cocktail? Do you stress about social events and there being alcohol available and what you will choose to drink?

Are you feeling more or less: relaxed, irritable, nervous, sensitive to stimulation, etc.

Have people at home or work made any comments about your personality? Are those who know about your choice supportive or not?

Do you feel differently about youself? Do you feel that you are missing out on something you need? Do you feel feel superior to others who continue to drink alcohol?

You get the idea. Give this some thought and share as much as you can. If you are OK with it, please let us know how much alcohol was a part of your diet. Like one drink a day or one drink a week, for example.
