6 day bender
 

I coming off a 6 day bender and am feeling the withdrawals from that. I had a beer to help with the withdrawals but it just makes me nauseous. I feel so guilty for this. I basically drank a fifth of vodka a day amongst others. I am determined more than ever to quit but I'm just in need of support tonight..Thank you.

Welcome Danger,

I'm glad you posted. We do understand how hard this is.

Welcome to SR danger78 - there a ton of support and good ideas here :)

If you're feeling poorly or worried about withdrawal I really think seeing a Dr is a better safer bet than drinking beer?

I used to get too ill to drink for a couple of days after a bender. Sick,, full of remorse determined not to drink again. But after a while I began to feel better, didn't really need to quit, forgot the misery, and off I went again.

I didn't seem to have the power to maintain the decision to not drink. I ended d up looking for the power in AA, and never drank again. Without a program I couldn't recover, and most programs or plans tried previously do not work with alcoholics of my type.

Welcome. I've had many benders of varying lengths. They always end the same - with me wondering how I'm going to quit drinking. There's a lot of support here. Glad you're here,

Sorry to hear about your situation. Good luck.

I hope our support can help you get sober for good. :)

once i was regularly attending meetings, my desire to drink was removed

God bless

My current attempt at quitting started after a week long bender. I also tapered with beer, and started feeling better after about a week. Now, over two weeks in I feel great. You can do it too.

I'm sorry i been there:( welcome to sober recovery i hope you find great support here to be a drunk is hard work I'm exhausted of that life i hope you too one day at a time:)
