I'm on my 90 day jurney. I'm holding at day 6 and I feel overly anxious and I get nervous very fast.
My wife asked me if I had a hard day in work yesterday but there wasn't anything special going on.
Can it be detox from my addiction??....

Sure. Many people experience withdrawal, or are just more edgy without their "pacifier". Recovery is about learning to live without the "pacifier" and still staying sane.

Work on the anxiety etc, and you won't have to worry that much about the addiction. The addiction is just to numb the pain of anxiety etc.

This would now become your way to become ever greater. You have had the temptation and yet did not full into it. The result: Zedonos nass'e Zecuyos!

Yeah, it's very hard - but it gets better!

I had some real intense Shalom Bayis issues when I started. A short while ago I told Mrs. Polar Bear about my streak (She doesn't really understand what a big problem it is), and now she is complimenting me that everything good that happens in the house is in the Zchus of my streak and that it's such a bracha!

Keep it up!

So... if something bad happens, she'll assume you had a fall

Gibbor:
Yes. If something bad happens she'll probably accuse me of having a fall.

Correction: If I fall and something bad happens, she'll accuse me of having a fall.

Hey ZDovid, I happened to tap into this topic today and noticed that you were worried at the time about how you would get through to 90. Today the number 90 is next to your name. Congrats! You made it! How's the tension doing?
