withdrawl
My husband had his last drink Sat. July 17. Last week he seemed fine. We got along, had sex, talked alot, and that all ended Sunday. Before quitting he would drink probably 5 evenings a week. Usually 4-6 beers. Now this week has been terrible. I feel like I'm living with a stranger. He wants nothing to do w/me. Hardly talks to the kids. I don't know what to do. I'm trying not to take it personal and give him space. I asked him tonight what I could do to help, that I felt like he just wanted to be left alone. He just looked at me with no emotion and said that he didn't know what was going on with him and that he just didn't feel right. He said that he didn't want to talk about it and that he was just having a really hard time and he was doing the best that he could. I just told him that I loved him and that I was here whenever he needs me. I guess I never thought about withdrawl. But then again I never saw this coming. I just thought he would quit and that would be it. Never thought he was really addicted. this really scares me and i don't know what to do. how long does this last? why was everything ok the 1st week?
