Recent experience--averaging two liters of vodka per week; back to back benders...wake up not feeling right at all. Beyond hungover; like am I going to die type of feeling. Get scared, start to hydrate and nurse myself back to at least a semi-normal state. Those "damaged organs" feelings were still lingering; got legit scared and had my lucid moment--it's all fun and games until you end up in the fuckin' hospital...

So I decided fuck it, I'm gonna kick. Three days of withdrawals (sweats, nausea, loss of equilibrium, so on) and then it finally faded away. Been sober a week now, and I don't miss the stuff. I'd rather live; fuck a hospital bed and a bloated stomach...for what? Never going back. Feeling healthier than ever, actually. Probably because I'm not intentionally making myself sick anymore. Good luck anons.

Im in a bathtub riggt now trying to combat it. (what you guys- and now myself -call "the fear") I wish there was ANYTHING I could just take to make it go away or go to sleep and stay asleep until its over.
Stayed sober for 2 weeks...drank yesterday a bit..had it hit me in public today so hard I had to leave. Like a fucking trainwreck of panic that made me feel like is loae my mind. Back to cold turkey.
Id honestly rather have ANY sort of physical pain over being trapped in this mental hell...any al/ck remedies for this at all? It lasts days for me sometimes and I cannot miss work.

I think i have the worst hangovers of all people i ever met
I literally can't do anything until around 8PM of the day after drinking due to extreme headaches, puking at least twice around 3PM and barely even being able to move. Eating anything on hangover day is a no-go as even the thought of eating makes me want to throw up.
And the worst part is i get hangovers really fucking easily, sometimes even after 5 or so beers, which is a nightmare since i have a strong head and downing a liter of vodka in one sitting isn't difficult.

Dude I have been sober 27 months and my withdrawals literally made me stronger. i didn't die because i wanted to sober up more than i wanted to feel like shit.

Poured my last bottle down the drain said my good buys. Kept saying " i have had a million beers and a millions shots. Lets just not drink."

5 days of "deeply considering suicide to anxiety and despair " pushed through the chemical part. 5 days later feel like I over came a fucking mountain and could not be more proud of who i am.
9 days later felt like another person.

Good job anon

Dunno. Congeners would be my guess. Vodka distillers for example will typically take a vat of product and simply put less effort into purifying and filtering some, even though the cost to them for creating better stuff is negligible, so they have a 'budget' option. It'll be overflowing with pollutants which will make you feel like death. Then they'll create mid-shelf for the congener-conscious alchie who isn't rich, and top-shelf for the normies and the millionaires.

went from 5'11" 145 lbs to 5'11" 160 lbs over the course of two years of alcoholism, with a lot of fluctuation in between. it's easier to stay skinny when you start skinny, that's for sure. last period of sobriety i had, i gained some muscle (and a little fat) and got to a healthy 170-175 lbs. if i were to gain 15 lbs from alcohol again, it would be much more recognizable.

the real answer is you don't really eat though, yes. i've gone many a day consuming 500 or fewer kcal in actual food, mainly due to lack of funds and picking alcohol over food consistently. if i ate as well as i drank, i'd be a fatass for sure.

I can survive daylight but the evenings and nights, the darkness, is what gets me.
I could stay sober no problem, the issue isn't the lack of alcohol but the presence of something else.
This seems to describe it quite well:
>Hal isn’t old enough yet to know that this is because numb emptiness isn’t the worst kind of depression. That dead-eyed anhedonia is a but a remora on the ventral flank of the true predator, the Great White Shark of pain. Authorities term this condition clinical depression or involutional depression or unipolar dysphoria. Instead of just an incapacity for feeling, a deadening of soul, the predator-grade depression Kate Gompert always feels as she Withdraws from secret marijuana is itself a feeling. It goes by many names- anguish, despair, torment, or q.v. Burton’s melancholia or Yevtuschenko’s more authoritative psychotic depression- but Kate Gompert, down in the trenches with the thing itself, knows it simply as It.

I feel scared for no reason and have an unbearably uncomfortable undefinable sting in my heart and gut and brain and it won't let me find peace and it makes me have nightmares.
Drinking doesn't make it go away, but it makes the edges soft and round, it makes the pain blurry and rainbowy.

My muscles hurt and my hands and feet fall asleep all the time, I guess that's alcoholic neuropathy. Is this shit reversible when I quit drinking?

Also, what reason would there be for my throat to swell whenever I drink alcohol?
It's like an allergy, but it only started recently. I experimented with it and it's definitely the booze that makes my throat swell. Most of the time it only kicks in the morning after drinking, not while actually drinking.

So I found out my 500ml a day of vodka is only going to be 1100 calories roughly.
So as long as I eat my vegetables and meats and avoid junk I should start losing some weight.

yeah. it helps with anxiety and helps with alcohol withdrawals, but you get physically dependent on it if you take regularly, and the withdrawals for gabapentin last about a week. the withdrawal symptoms are similar to alcohol.

i used to take it last year. at first it was good every once in a while but then i started taking it daily (didnt know it caused physical dependency). had to taper off it with the help of the doctor. i would save what you have for alcohol withdrawals. only use it occasionally.

two years sober myself. Withdrawals kinda suck, but they're nowhere near as bad as being a complete non functioning alcoholic, believe it or not. That always makes me laugh when I see people in these threads say they dread withdrawals, but never realize they're in a much worse hell right now.

And if your withdrawals are so bad they'll kill you, then you're going to die anyway whether you're drinking or not, that's how bad of shape you're in.

One thing that really surprised me was just how long term the effects of alcohol really were. You always think you drink, get hungover for a few days and it's done. Fuck no, that shit stays with you for a long long time. It is a depressant after all, It took like 3 months of sobriety before I stopped being inexplicably depressed. About 6 months in I started to get emotions again. Took about a year before all the physical pain, like liver and pancreas aching and all that went away.

The other thing I realize is just how much alcohol ruled my mind, I was super depressed, suicidal, all that shit. When I sobered up my life didn't really improve besides sobriety, but I was amazed at just how much better, mentally I felt, I still had all the same problems but none of them seemed like an unfixable tragedy like I thought when I was drinking. Go figure, you consume massive quantities of a mind altering drug, and it affects you mind.

23.5 years old.

Been drinking heavily the past 2 years I'd say. Only now realizing that my horrible hangovers and weird psychiatric symptoms I've gotten in the past weren't hangovers and weird psychiatric symptoms...they were withdrawals. Only realizing that this week now that I've decided to not drink.

My tongue went numb on Saturday...I've only just gotten sensation back there today. Stopped drinking Monday morning when I woke up.

It's scary how little you're told in schools about this stuff. Being from the Deep South, I was told virtually nothing. It's a socially acceptable thing, but it's so bad for you.

I didn't really come to terms with the fact that this is an issue until very recently, but all the warning signs were there. Hope I haven't already fucked everything up.

Glad I found you guys. Anyone know if this pic is accurate? I just want to be well soon. Should I have tapered? I took a clonazepam (0.5 mg) I had diagnosed to me for an unrelated issue which I have never taken before today earlier.
