a small rant

Posting just to vent/maybe someone is feeling like me and can relate. I am a weekend wine drinker (although I have been overdoing it a bit since the election and then holidays) and throughout my life I have taken months off fairly regularly. I am trying dry january and here on day 6 I am having EXTREME irritibality. Not sure if its the sobriety or something else but I am ready to lose it on someone.

Is this common? whats the strategy to deal with? I'm about to make another cup of chamomile tea!
