Not out of the woods yet, but better.
Hi everyone,
Just checking in.
This period of withdrawals has really sent me reeling, but I feel a little better each day. I certainly advise that no one mix alcohol and xanax, especially in large doses, because it literally made me loopier than ever.
I'm glad all of you are here and that most have a kind, forgiving spirit, because I feel foolish when I consider the content of my last threads and think to myself, "What the hell was I thinking?"
Today is day fourteen and although I'm not 100% better, I'll take the little bit of improvement I feel and hold on to that.

Great job on making it to two weeks!
I'm pleased to hear you're feeling a little better, firestorm. Alcohol and xanax have a nasty way of depressing the central nervous system.
By the way, I haven't seen anything in the content of your last threads or posts that was inappropriate or foolish. I'm glad you're posting again.

So good to hear that U R doing so well.
2 weeks is awesome.
I know about mixing...had an Rx for Xanax and I abused them one night with alcohol and after that night, I dumped them....years ago. They competely laid me out for days. Nasty nasty stuff 2 mix, I learned my lesson. ( sharing my experience, sorry 4 mini hijack)
Stay strong.

Thanks everyone,
Talk about a kick in the pants, this combo meal of xanax and booze booted me hard in the rear, if ya get my drift. Little pills and little bottles sure pack a huge whallop. Today is the first day in a couple weeks that I've felt somewhat normal. A friend of mine is staying with me for a couple days and after I told her how much I was drinkng and the amount of pills I was taking, she said I'm lucky to still be breathing. She's right and I'm grateful that this episode of insanity didn't plant me six feet under. My mind was scrambled, diced, tossed, and then deep fried till burnt around the edges. I hope it recovers.
Thanks again to all of you here. Your support has helped sustain me throught this dark, wretched night and I'm grateful.
