Hooped, you maybe need to get some professional help my friend, do you really want to go on like this ? One thing I've learned in my short time here is , you have to do whatever it takes. There is being sober or going further down. Please choose to come back up. Stay with us, keep talking to us.

Hooped

No i don't want to go on like this janie...and mrG yup i have definite signs of liver damage
but im also scared to go for further tests because i been bootin it up harder than ever.
It's like an insane affliction addiction to a never ending merry go round.
Right at the moment I feel like a clown been thrown off a carousel horse.
im hoping to pick up and dust off and just go for some cotton candy
and steer clear of that darn merry go round once and for all

Thats why im here

I hope to be in a little better shape soon....i've done it before

Right at the moment I am fried....physically mentally and spiritually.
I haven't eaten a thing since last weekend.
Dude on the hotline phone told me not to try to eat at the moment cuz I'd probably just hurl it up.
Lord knows what I've done to my liver by now.

But I'm not drinking......long night here though

Sorry you had such a rough night, Hooped, but good job not drinking. Today is a new day. Stay in the ring and keep punching.

PurpleKnight

It's time to get off the merry-go-round by whatever means possible.

Alcohol didn't do any of us any favours, and turning a corner is far from easy, but we all deserve, even you Hooped to have more then where our addiction was leading us!!

Hang in there!!

JanieJ

((((Hooped)))) Well done for staying sober through all that anguish.

Hooped

Yeah it was a very rough night which is now a very rough day.

It's only 11 in the morning here but normally I would easily have already banged off at least half a dozen or so....and that is not going to happen today.

I'm kinda actually almost seeing spots right now...don't know if its because I'm kinda malnourished at the moment or what.....but the shape I feel right now....its all I can manage to read here and then dash to the bathroom gagging, with little laydowns in between staring at the ceiling.

Hang in there Hooped

You should really see a doctor if you plan on quitting today, there's no telling what might happen - especially at the volume you've been drinking. Be safe.

I hope you talk to your dr before you detox, too, Hooped.

And, I'm glad you're planning to go into inpatient treatment.

IMO It's time to get some help. You can detox much more safely with medical attention. Why torture yourself while you risk your long tem health? Common Hooped. Get some help.

Hooped

Just talked to a nurse at the first detox center and she said the detox program is 7 to 10 days long but by the time she could get me available bed I probably will be long detoxed on my own.....

The rehab portion is an entirely different matter which is months long also with a huge waiting list.....
I have an appointment on Monday to discuss all this further and other available options

ScottFromWI

Glad to hear you are actively seeking help Hooped. Don't rule out a trip to a regular doctor or even the ER if things get too bad before Monday.

awuh1

If I were you I would get to the emergency room so they can help you to get safely through the weekend. It's a long time till Monday.
