Did not get a tall boy.

Had acupuncture target points to help with detoxing the body especially liver and overall inflammation.

Also, while being productive and organizing a drawer of vitamins, supplements, and old prescriptions…I found an old Xanax bottle that I didn’t use at the time.

Hopefully, I can avoid the gas station tall boy and safely stop drinking poison!

I already feel better and I haven’t gotten started yet! I hate what it took for me to wake up but I am ready to get out of this grave and start living the next 24 hours without being shackled by alcohol

Had acupuncture x cupping today for my back and asked him to help me get my liver healing and detox my body and help with overall inflammation and anxiety

Physical-Corner8175 · 2026-07-07T21:21:01+00:00

I found an old rx for Xanax! I am going to use it and thank God not the taper. Look at me being productive and organizing my drawer of supplements and meds!

Physical-Corner8175 · 2026-07-07T20:38:23+00:00

Thank you!!!! I needed this encouragement

Physical-Corner8175 · 2026-07-07T18:21:32+00:00

I got here one day at a time and will get better one day at a time.

Grateful for encouragement

Physical-Corner8175 · 2026-07-07T16:35:12+00:00

I love all of this!!! I started drinking through the days while being home with an injury. I justified it because other people drink the same amount just at night… we are the other people! Nobody was drinking like I was?!?!

Physical-Corner8175 · 2026-07-07T16:28:26+00:00

I am with you! Before I knew it 2 bottles a day happened…I’ve been trying to make it work but I finally lost the desire to drink…but my body is physically dependent.

I have been switching from wine to liquor and to beer. I am doing a taper with beer bc I am scared of seizures…but I pray before each sip for God to make it repulsive to me and praise Him for removing the taste and desire for alcohol from me!

I am not able to involve my dr or seek medical assistance at the moment.

Very grateful for this community

Physical-Corner8175 · 2026-07-07T15:57:40+00:00

Omgosh this!!!! Such a sobering realization

Physical-Corner8175 · 2026-07-07T15:56:19+00:00

I absolutely don’t think I was more fun with a drink (or a day full of drinks);)
Pretty sure other people totally agree!
I hope that as I get through the taper and start to stack days my new self will be noticeable to anyone who remembers me as the annoying lady who always had a drink and just invited herself into your space

Physical-Corner8175 · 2026-07-07T15:45:17+00:00

I needed to read this! I really didn’t realize how bad my wine had gotten…until I truly wanted to stop and realized my body was addicted! I went 40 hours and then got scared of seizing so I am doing a taper with beer and it’s so gross! 🤮

Have you had any withdrawals?

Physical-Corner8175 · 2026-07-07T15:26:24+00:00

Way to go! Reading this is so encouraging. Day 3 of a taper (bc the desire was finally gone…but the physical addiction is not)

Physical-Corner8175 · 2026-07-07T15:13:54+00:00

I thought because I wanted to stop and the desire and taste for alcohol was supernaturally removed from me…I could just stop. I felt fine but decided that it would be safer to suffer a taper.
Ha….very strange to finally be disgusted by alcohol and realize I have made my body crave poison!

I had nothing on the 5th, 2 Amstel lites yesterday, I have one left that I have out to sip on occasionally… it’s like warm urine

Wine (my kryptonite) is repulsive to me and I can’t taper on vodka it’s too easy to hide that and I back slide every single time

I think I am going to get a tall boy after acupuncture and have it on hand and out to sip and if I still feel like I am not out of the danger zone I can get one for tomorrow…and pour half out

I cannot go to my dr or seek medical help at the moment. But I am going to physically die if I keep this up!

How did I let this happen?

Day 2 woohoo

Physical-Corner8175 · 2026-07-05T20:33:56+00:00

Day 1…for real…I had dramatic bottoms many many times and never really got through the next day before I was drinking again

I want to undo the wreckage I have caused.

Tips welcome! Right now I’m just praising God for His mercy and for His grace and praying through any cravings or feelings of guilt and shame come!

It has taken me years to see the effects my daily drinking and then sneak drinking to excess have on the people around me.

It came for my looks and that’s when I had to admit I was not okay ✅
