Anxiety Still get hit with anxiety just like getting hit with cravings They aren’t often and hit with no warning And If I was drinking it’d be much worse 36 days I think. Kinda stopped counting |
Congrats on 36 days!! Anxiety is unpredictable...but the longer you stay sober the less anxiety will occur |
36 days ..Well done. Keep going |
Great job on 36 days Rodney. I suffer from anxiety too - and while quitting drinking did improve it somewhat, I still needed to accept and address that It was a distinct and separate issue I needed to treat accordingly. If it's causing you distress or altering how you go about your day, consider seeking some help. Anxiety and Depression are very, very common afflictions and both are very treatable. |
Thanks y’all The anxiety/guilt/sadness while I drank was unbelievable. While not drinking it’s tolerable. I’m diagnosed with PTSD and I believe said diagnosis. I’m also generally a happy person and the two states of being should be contradictory but they aren’t in my case Impossible for me to explain that Although drinking just messed me up No matter what I’ve had to endure lately, staying off booze is much better |
Rodney, 36 days is great! My situation is similar to Scott's, and I have less anxiety, but it's still there. I'm glad you're noticing an improvement. |
When I had my panic attack in September (after drinking more than I usually do after 3 straight weeks), my anxiety and subsequent panic attacks lingered for 2 months. I had never had anything like that before. Nothing seemed to help and breathing exercises made it worse. Everything has since calmed down and those feelings have gone sway, thank goodness! |
