Hi. Im back, ive been staying with my mother, who is very strict and ive had to behave. So no booze, no internet not even any tv after 9 lol, but i guess thats what i needed, i can see now going to vodka was a step up or in real terms a step closer to either brain damage or death. I want to live and really want to beat it

Hi. Heres an update.
Last saturday i drank a huge amount stopping drinking at 10.
Then sunday evening i became very unwell at work. Temp 42.5 pulse 155 sweaty shaking dizzy bad headache eyes dilated etc etc. So i went home and was scared all night id pushed my body to far and that was the end. Obs it wasnt the end but it was a bad night. On the monday i went doctors who helped me. by friday i was feeling alot better and am now ready for work on monday.
Im now still sober and i will not drink again. I know how close i was. Im worried i wont be so lucky next time.

True. I knew i should of gone ER or A &E (english version) and im abit worried of seeing the manager at work as she wanted me to go and i refused.
im guessing my secrets out as i may of had a sign "im an alcoholic" as it was classic withdrawel. Well a bad dose of it anyway

I feel you pain man, it is 2:42 a.m here in Canada and I still feel brutally hungover. I stopped drinking at 10:30 p.m the night before and I drank a bottle of vodka in under an hour.
About a year ago I drank about 20 beers in 2 hours and I called an ambulance the next day. My pulse was about 150 and my arms were numb. They hooked me up to an IV and stuck me in the waiting room for 5 hours. It was the longest 5 hours of my life.

It gets worse - never better. The amount you drink, the intensity of the hangovers, the struggles to quit. My last relapse hangover was enough to make me want to stay sober, because I never want to feel that way again. We alter our physiological brain by abusing alcohol, that's one of the reasons it is a "progressive" disease. It's not a lack of self-control. But if you're an alcoholic, you should NOT drink. If you're NOT an alcoholic, you don't need to. People who are NOT alcoholics don't run around worrying about if they are NOT drinking or are drinking.
