Does any medication interfear with PAWS recovery??
I've read that during paws you have to sustain complete absence from drugs and alcohol.
My experience is bad with any sleeping meds , Zopicone, nytol and even night nurse , every time I've taken one tablet of the above the next day or 2 I suffer depression , extra foggy head, spells of dizzyness and a drugged up feeling .
I also had a worst reaction after taking antidepressants (ssri) so I've stopped taking them.
I don't want to take medication but my insomnia is bad and some weeks I hardly sleep so I have no choice .
I'm worried that by taking the medication it will interfear with my brain healing
I've checked my calander and I'm only 50 days sober , I haven't been drunk since November but had a beer in January so that's the date I now use.
It's terrible this recovery so many bad days , just feel off , my energy levels are up and down , ringing in head , foggy head , slight dizzy ness ESP when I stand from laying down, anxiety spells , depression spells , insomnia and have stoped going out and had to quit most of my work .
Recovery sucks , just glad I don't crave a drink ... 20 years of heavy binge drinking is enough drinks in my life thanks.
Hope sombody can answer the paws and medication question as it's hardly spoke about on SR .
This site is great it's really helping me get though this so much .
Thanks everybody
