Anxiety issues
Hi, my name is Vicky and I quit drinking 5 weeks ago tm====feeling physically energetic, but going thru some anxiety issues, including work issues who aren't helping me, even tho they claim they're a company who'll help if u admit u have a problem. Been prescribed clonazapan to take only 3x week to help me sleep, but been poppin them like candy at work now---the stress level too high for me. I'm a shipper receiver and exposed to a lot of noise and distractions---drivers, co-workers,radios, two-ways----I asked for a later shift when it's quieter and my boss seemed more concerned that my relief would get behind on her own work cause we're so short staffed---really don't want to take the stress leave route, any advice from anyone?
I can't advise you on the work issue, but want to congratulate you on five weeks sober!

Your time sober is GREAT!! KEEP AT IT!!! In a few more weeks you could be feeling better any I found for me that getting sleep and eating well and avoiding any substances at all like pills or pain killers or caffiene and stimulants was very helpful. When I did hit the pillow it was GREAT, and that was even if it were just a few hours. I just kept things easy and smooth and tried not to replace the booze. Just go with life and try to eat right and enjoy things, enjoy a nice desert or something now and again. I hope this helps. The bottom line is. I'm so GLAD you are here!
