good going man. keep it up! 😀
Got to go to work. Waking up sober is not worse but just as weird as waking up drunk.
Plus it’s frikking boiling!
I can’t take it. Not since 2005 have I actually felt suicidal. It’s bad enough at work cos I know what I have to do there, but I have been inebriated one way or another, almost every day now since my teens. I don’t know how to not be inebriated. I don’t think I’ll be able to cope. I want to hurt people, I want to hurt myself. I’ve even considered killing my Mum as she’s the only thing stopping me doing all of the above.
When will this feeling go away?
give it time man. It’s a really stressful thing you’re going through. the more you stick at it the more it’ll go away … I find after a month or so of not drinking it starts to get a ton easier. even a week it’ll not be so bad. You might get bouts of anger and just sudddenly feeling mega pissed of and tence for no reason, but the longer you leave it the more it’ll go away … best thing is to try to not let your mind go down them stewing thought patttens and try to take your mind somewhere else. easier said then done … but distraction is a good method.
you’re not gonna be feeling like this for ever, just remeber … you’ve litteraly only just stopped drinking, the the effects are going to be there most intence now … it’ll only get easyier from here providing you force your self not to drink.
Cheers man, people are being so supportive, both on here and in the ‘real world’ it’s quite touching because my addictions have made me a real bastard at times.
Got SO much more work done today. Just kept my head down and got on with it. I’m trying to keep myself as occupied as possible. I don’t find myself jonesing for a drink I just don’t feel in control some of the time.
Get occasional drunk-like symptoms as well. Slurring words, feeling a little inebriated etc but not in an enjoyable way.
Not drunk any alcohol today and have one small bottle of beer (unopened) in case of emergencies!
Last night, no beer. Full-on insomnia. Did a couple of diclaz that I had stashed but they have a long onset and now my alarms gone after (after finally getting SOME) sleep, I feel a little buzzed. Oh well, hopefully I’ll feel so tired tonight that I’ll fall asleep easily!
Another small step!
One small step for Crispydelic, one GIANT leap for the health of his liver. 😛
Yay! Shame I feel like shit though!
do you mind if i ask when you started drinking heavily?
i have been drinking quite a bit and sometimes for prolonged periods of time for years but every so often i have a week or two off and i don’t get these dt’s you speak of
I have probably drunk at least 2 litres of strong cider every night for about 4 years. Then weekends, wabaam as much liquor as I could fit down my neck.
