Just wanna numb it
Posted , 9 users are following.
I have 2 weeks without drinking. I went through the withdrawals. Of course I still have cravings. Problem is the past three days I haven't been feeling well. I quit to feel better!! I made an appt with a specialist. I think I know why I'm having nausea, stomach pain, dizziness etc.....point is I'm just tired of feeling like this. I just wanna drink and numb the pain for a little. I know deep down in the long run I'll regret it but my insane mind is thinking of this moment. Please.....need advice!

Medication is usually the solution.

Is there a meeting you can plug into for some face-to-face support? AA, SoberRecovery, Moderation Management?
Are you using any meds to help you quit/stay quit?

I am so pleased to know that you have achieved 2 weeks without alcohol. Congratulations ! Oh, how I would love to be able to do that. Please don't give in to the cravings and low health feelings. You already realise the regret factor.
Do you have any medication, such as Diazepam, that might help you through this rough patch?
I wish you WELL. Take care of yourself.

I had a migraine on Tues...it is Saturday and I still have the after effects of it...tired...sluggish..aches and pains....its not the flu..it is a part of the migraine process....and I said TODAY..forget this..all these Drs..all these therapist...I'm giving UP....I'm drinking....I just want to FEEL good for an hour.
I gave up drinking to FEEL GOOD!
And my boyfriend reminded me..that...when I drink I don't feel good either...True....so I didn't drink yet today...its 4pm here.
But, it struck me when you said...you just want to "feel" good if you are going to be sober. I've said that so many times over the years.....when I had 8 years sober..the first 3 months I couldn't sleep...I was so angry..and I said the same thing to my Dr....If I'm going to feel crappy....I might as well drink.
DONT....this will pass.

And sometimes we are not even willing to take any steps to prevent having the drink....now next time you will hopefully...
Distraction has worked for me today...but it was a JOB...truly...I was almost in tears 2 x...very close to drinking....
I'm sorry it happened to you....just get up again

I had sleeping pills, in the past... got them mixed up with other meds... ended up in A.&E. at hospital !
How are you feeling, now?
I didn't hear back about the old Apple Cider Vinegar "cure all".

How do you function on so little sleep?

Lack of sleep.
Surplus of alcohol.
Recipe for disaster.
I do have the good grace to feel really sh*t !
