I have been lurking and while my symptoms aren’t as bad as some, I find myself really restless and physically anxious, and my heart pounds. I also seem to be getting more headaches than when I was drinking. I guess after 15+ years of dependency, it’s not surprising that I would get PAWS, but it sucks. I also have ADD, so getting things done right now is next to impossible. Fortunately haven’t had other symptoms, but I am only 3 months in, and the anxiety has gotten worse over the last month. I got out of rehab and found myself “self medicating” with a couple of shots on Sunday. Relieved the anxiety for a minute, but now the cravings are back. Trying to be positive, but feel so useless right now!
