Hi guys,

Its my first day/first time to post. I recently had a friend die at 28 years old from drinking. My father is a recovering addict of 36 years. I was always able to keep my drinking under control and in the last two years it has gotten pretty bad. Its made me want to make a change. Right now im really uncomfortable and just feel miserable. Any encouraging words to help me through day 1?


Thanx a ton,


Mike

hope your de tox goes smoothly....don't hesitate to call your
doctor or go to an ER if things get frightening.

Are you not able to go to detox at least for the first few days? Your body could be going through a lot of changes. I had the shakes, twiches, muscle spasms, no sleep. It's good to keep in touch with a doctor on a daily basis especially in the first days.

Agreed. If you get outside help when you start, your chances of success are greatly improved.

I am debating going to the doc...

Right now im keeping good friends with the bathroom. Drinking water.
All sweaty, and twitchy, clammy, cant sleep, and body really hurts. If things get much worse ill prob go.
