Like I say though , today is better than yesterday, and i know tomorrow will be better yet.
Like you, I wanted to see the Doctor yesterday, but couldn't get an appointment.
I actually was considering just having a 'couple' just to ease the pain, but I'm glad I didn't,,it would just have prolonged the nightmare.
'Weaning' just does not work for me, those 3 or 4 beers end up turning into 20 or so,,,,every single time, without fail.
You can do it Dawn... 3 days or so of feeling like you're half dead, and then you will be back on top and feeling like a million bucks again....
Remember how you feel right now.
I sure am, and hopefully that memory will help us stay sober and sane. Good luck.
Maybe this sounds stupid, but I have never had a problem quitting drinking before and that is why I was so scared. I think we instinctively know that our bodies are in withdrawal. I did , and searched and searched and I found you guys. I just know that I cannot drink or do any sort of drugs, that is just how it is for me and thank God I found that out before it killed me. That is how I look at it like life or death. Thanks for the words.
