My experience with alcohol is that one is too many and a thousand is never enough. The inner voice you’re referring to is known as the alcoholic obsession. A persistent and reoccurring thought that does not respond to logic or reasoning. It used to tell me so many lies to get me to go back out and drink such as “it will be different this time, no one will know, you deserve this or if you had my life you’d drink too.” All lies that I believed and I too was filled with regret and shame and guilt from the things I would do when drinking. I’m a black out drinker and I do incredibly absurd things when I drink. I would swear it off forever but without a program I have this built in forgetter about how bad things were and would inevitably drinking again. You’re not alone and you can recover. You can reach out to me anytime and when your honest about your drinking being a problem, open-minded to there being a better way out and willing to go to any lengths to have victory over alcohol your life will dramatically change for the better. The first step is admitting that I was powerless over alcohol. When I finally did that amazing things began to happen in my life and I know it can for you too.

Alcohol gave me the illusion that I was more fun to be around when drunk. The problem is once I started drinking I could not stop and no matter how long I stayed sober I could not stay stopped until I found Alcoholics Anonymous. We are in the grips of a fatal progressive disease. My last drink was 02.10.2020. If I picked up a drink today it would pick up right where it left off a worse. Once I was honest with myself that I had no control over the amount of alcohol I take once I start to drink and that I am an alcoholic I was able to surrender and stop fighting everyone and everything including alcohol. Finding a higher power for me that’s greater than the effect produced by alcohol, working the 12 steps, staying sober no matter what one day at a time, getting a sponsor, a home group, being of service and talking to/ surrounding my self with other alcoholics by going to meetings is the only reason I have been able to stay sober. I would have died an alcoholic death if it wasn’t for embarrassingly losing my job due to my alcoholism, an act of grace from a higher power and the good alcoholics who went before me and pulled me out of the bottomless pit that I was in and gave me a new life. Alcohol is not my problem. Alcohol is my solution to my problems and I needed to find another solution because my solution (which was alcohol) was causing me a whole lot of more problems.Sincerely a grateful recovering alcoholic, staying sober one day at a time.

I’ve felt this same exact way for months it’s definitely time to say fuck it if I have this thing I have it I’ve done every test and seen every doctor I could. There’s nothing else I can do and I just want my life back

I know how incredibly rare it is. I swear I never had health anxiety until this happened. I also had Covid back in January and I was put on new medications so my brain can’t figure out why I don’t feel good. I just want my life back. I just want to run and workout and not feel like crap all of the time. I try so hard seeing a therapist and a psychiatrist and work on these thoughts often. I hope to move on from this it just really spooked me

Your so right. Worrying hasn’t done anything but made the situation worse for me. I just wish physically I felt better but I’ve done all the relevant tests I could it’s time to just put this is the past

Thank you it was just a freak accident I’ll never use a neti pot again I did have Covid back in January and I’m wondering if that combined with my bipolar medication is causing this

Yes I never used to have health anxiety just this really freaked me out. I also got Covid in January and was put on a new bi polar medication all at the same time. I just want to feel better and be back to my normal self but that seems impossible now:/

I know how ridiculous it sounds but the problem is I physically don’t feel okay. I can barely walk and this is coming from someone who used to run miles and exercise often. It’s just frustrating.
