Hi Elizabeth! Glad you're here and congrats on your 8 months of sobriety.

Since you've got a good pdoc that makes a big difference. You can hang on until tomorrow.....don't turn green yet. Just be honest with your pdoc and tell him what you've told us here. It may take some time but I'm sure you'll find something that'll make you feel better.

There's also the possibility of PAWS (post-acute withdrawal syndrome). Someone around here has a good link, or may be there's a sticky around here somewhere. If I find it, I'll post it here. Anyway, PAWS can make you feel all kids of crazy and can last for quite some time.

hugs
PD
