Hey everyone I'm still here and usually drunk as a skunk. I hit a new low. I know, I know the advice will be: see a doctor. It was 5AM & I couldn't buy booze so I bought a big bottle of Listerine mouthwash and chugged the whole thing. Has anyone ever done this before? I'm getting sharp pains on my right side & don't feel right at all. On a side note if I just drink mouthwash is that considered a relapse? The drunk I got off the mouthwash was very weird and didn't seem like a usually drunk. I got some meds to help me detox and will be doing it soon. I'm only 32 & I feel like alcohol is starting to physically kill me. Mentally it beat me down years ago. Just curious if anyone else resorted to mouthwash to get drunk. I feel like I'm watching a train wreck in slow motion and just can't stop it.
