Made it a Week then lost it

I was out doing some community work on Day 7 and I started shaking really bad. I just couldn't wait to get home and chug a beer to ease the symptoms. So I did. And now again today I'm drinking to ease the hangovers. I have such bad anxiety when I don't drink. I don't know what to do.

Well, the thing to do is not drink. Another would be to see a doctor. I had horrible anxiety, too. I drank to control it and then crossed the line into alcoholism and the anxiety increased exponentialy from the hangovers.
Finally sought professional help and found out I have an anxiety disorder. I quit drinking and was prescribed anxiety medication. Haven't had a panic attack or even low level anxiety since.

I know how that cycle goes, so you're not alone there. I feel for you, but there is hope. I do hope you find it.

Have you thought about seeing a Dr, Funyons - they may be able to help with the shakes and the anxiety?
