One binge drink and cocaine night 8 days ago and still feeling disconnected from my brain. So scared

Posted , 1 user is following.

Hi. I am not a huge drinker or drug taker, only once in a blue moon. I went out last Saturday (first time since lock down) and was drinking all day and night and also took some cocaine.

On Sunday I was very rough, but took it as normal, on Monday i knew somthing wasn't quite as i still felt dizzy. Tuesday - Friday i was crippled with anxiety attacks (I am not a anxious person generally) as my head still feels disconnected and scared to death that it will never go back to how it was. I have read things on google in which i had all the symptoms of 'brain fog' which can apparently last for decades.

My anxitey attacks have subsided slightly but my head still feels in the clouds and disconnected. In this state I can't work, go on holiday, drive etc.

I am so scared that I have done permanent damage, meaning I can't do anything i love, it has been 8 days now and the longer it gets the more i think about it. Has anyone had anything similar? i need the reassurance that is will go. Thanks Alex.
