Sanchez 3 days or 2 days was the start.

Here is the deal. Booze starts out a heavy 2 pronged addiction. Physical and mental.

It sounds like you might be a bit kindled. You have been drinking off and on for decades. Additionally, you might have some antidepressants or some pills you mixed with drinking.

Everyone is different and the company line is see a Dr.

In my experience....I used heavy exercise and sweets to trick my brain. This went on for over a year. I suffered horribly getting clean, but the as far as I could tell, nobody knew it.

I was never diagnosed by a Dr. I decided to quit and made it this far.

There is no miracle, mystery, steps, etc etc. I do believe in God and without God, I am doomed. My faith is my bedrock.

I used to curl up in a ball and whimper. That suffering hardened me and made any appeal to relapse scary.

If you are in the hell I was, suffer, suffer, suffer. If quitting was easy, addiction wouldn't be addiction.

It boils down to the lack of dopamine production caused by alcohol usage.

It takes a long time to get used to normal and that is why so few make it out.

This place saved my life.

Pleasempost and ask questions before you drink. If you are on meds, you need to stay on them until you speak with a Dr.

Remember, the Dr. Is the most conservative way.

Thanks.
