Why Am I Regularly Waking Up At Night After Quitting Drinking?

Hi ive been a regular binge drinker for atleast 5 yrs, ive stopped completely from 2 weeks ago and now following a healthy lifestyle, but have found i wake up constantly through the night, every hour or 2 and wake up feeling exausted, is this to be expected? Thankyou.

Hi, thanks for posting in HCM.
It is good that you have quit alcohol.
These are indicating of withdrawal symptoms of abstaining from alcohol.
Relax and get engaged physically. After few days, things will come back to normal.
