It has been a TERRIBLE day today. I have been drinking nearly everyday for about a year. I'm 22 years old. Well this morning I woke up all sweaty, sweaty palms, feet and just got all hot. I was extremely shaky all over. My mind was racing. I felt jumpy, like if someone looked at me i'd feel weird, like twitchy or something? so I would avoid eye contact.

It's weird, because of my old haunted house, I keep thinking of the devil like, its possessing me or something? is this hallucination? I know I am a good person and all that, I don't know why these thoughts get into my head.

I'm prescribed klonopin for withdrawl, and my tolerance has went up, this morning I took 6 klonopins (1 mg) and felt a LITTLE better. About 4 hours ago my friend was telling me that Melatonin decreases anxiety so I took 5 mg of it. Right now I am worrying about seizures. I googled and it freaked me out!! I just took a valium about 15 mins ago. Before I took that I was feeling tired & drained(idk if its from the melatonin) I keep feeling crawling sensations on my head... I'm just really freaked out!! I don't want to die!!!!!! I heard 1 in 30 die from alcohol withdrawal.

My dad was an alcoholic and he quit cold turkey. I have no idea how he did it!!

Someone please help! I feel like I am going crazy!!

Also--- My last drink was at about 3 am this morning

Hi Kendra

I believe if you're concerned enough to ask, then yeah it's a good idea.
Thats a fair amount of self medicating there too in my opinion.

It's best to be safe Go call someone

Keep us updated when you can

valium, klonapin, melatonin, and alcohol in yer system... i would highly suggest getting to the hospital. i also highly suggest letting them know you have a problem with alcohol and want help.

Please get yourself to a hospital, kendra. And don't drive yourself! This could be very serious or even fatal. Please go and let us know now you are doing when you get a chance.

I feel ok! I mean I'm just sleepy!I think I might just go to sleep? and see how I feel tomorrow . I just have anxiety & panic disorder so I think I freak out over things.

Same as the others, cocktail of medecine and a hang over can be dangerous.

We can give you all the advice in the world....but in the end it's up to you to decide what you think is the appropriate course of action, Kendra.

I know it's scary, but don't talk yourself out of getting help if you really need it.

take care.

I think you should be seen by a doctor.. that's a scary cocktail of medicine.

This really can be the start of living without the liquid toxin
alcohol. Welcome back to SR...

Is rehab an option Kendra? It might be a good idea if you are over medicating yourself. Try to take a lower dose next time and go to the hospital when you wake up x Please take care of yourself x

I hope you went to the doc! Take care of yourself. That sounds like a lot of drugs in your system at once....

Sounds like how I felt when I would try to detox alone. Please get to a doctor asap. You're playing with fire here.
