I'm now on day 12 of Sober October. I am constantly feeling really tired and just want to sleep. I thought I would have had more energy but thats not the case.
Can anyone explain why im feeling like this and if there's is anything I can do. Fell like giving up.
Any ideas?

Hi Happymay, I’m not sure I have anything very wise to say but I wanted to comment. Without knowing how much you were drinking or what your life is like it’s hard to speculate about why you feel the way you do. I would say this though - alcohol will not make you feel better. You will feel better if you are not drinking (or if you are able to drink very little).

Well done on making it to 12 days! Would you like to talk about your previous drinking? There’s lots of supportive people on these boards.
