Medication
hi kmick, im not on meds from my doc,, but i do take vitamins,, l-glutamine for muscle help, and kudzu which is an anti craving herbal vit,, its been used for centuries in china, and for me it really works!!
i get it from health shops, or you can order it online,, cost bout£10 for a months supply(cheaper than booze) , and i swear by it,, and as its totally herbal no harm done, worth a try, also if i have trouble sleeping, i sometimes take a coulpe of valerian tabs, again herbal, and all are non addictive,, so hope this helps,, but please ask the herbalist for advice,, and let me know how it goes,
lv and hugs x x cleo xx

I am new to this forum, not new to recovery. IMO before you go any further in questioning medications, I would suggest you seek out a addiction counselor or doctor. Everyone is different--what works for one might not for another, your Doctor will know what's best if you need help in that area. That is JMO, though.
Speaking from my own experience when I stopped drinking I became deeply depressed and sought out Professional help. It was discovered I had Dysthymia or a low grade depression (probably what started me drinking for self medication). I was prescribed an antidepressant , but only under my Doctors supervision and regular blood testing for regulating dosage.
I would suggest you try nothing until you speak to your own Doctor. You are one of a kind, as we all are. Again that IMO!
Congratulations on finding the right path. You have found plenty of good people to talk you through this.
Hi kmick - welcome
I'm with Trix on this one - I understand you want opinions but whats worked for others may not work or be suitable for you, or others reading here.
I'd see your Dr and get a professional opinion on what you may or may not need

Thank you all. Yes I was just seeing what options were available. I'm currently prescribed gabapentin originally for my pinched nerve but because I have experienced seizures from withdrawals before my doc decided I should try it for other symptoms as well. So far so good.the first day I wasn't taking it and the anxiety was almost unbearable. Thanks all and sending positive thoughts.
