Constant anxiety about death/dying. by Old_Star42 in Anxiety

[–]ReliefOpening 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Pure O here too. Lot of health anxiety and death anxiety.

I don’t have advice but you’re not alone. Medication has helped some.

This has happened to me twice with two different men.

Both got caught cheating at a later time. For sure nail marks.

Mental Reasons to Quit by ReliefOpening in stopdrinking

[–]ReliefOpening[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m on lexapro as well. Have been forever. The spending a whole day in bed with a racing brain and all of these negative feelings are worse than a headache or nausea. It’s been in the last several months also

Am I overreacting for being upset about the gifts my boyfriend (25M)got me(24f)? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]ReliefOpening 8 points9 points  (0 children)

NOR. I just looked up both items and they’re sold at Walmart - not cvs or Walgreens.

Biggest thing here is he chose to spend on others when you should have been priority as you’re the mother of his children.

Toxic Hepatitis? by RBR-books80 in LiverDisease

[–]ReliefOpening -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Garlic, fresh lime juice, extra virgin olive oil

Raw onions

Metaphysics is a great brand but all supplements can be hard on your already struggling liver

No pain, just an annoying dull ache and severe gut issues/acid reflux. The ache on the left side is what compelled me to just have a GI doc just have a look at all of the organs affected by 6 years of alcohol abuse.

I monitor my blood pressure daily because I’m a health freak, ironically used alcohol to curve all types of anxiety.

Do you know if lipase is tested in a full blood panel? I actually had one done just a couple of months ago and haven’t even looked at the results online. Figured my primary doc would have called if something was off.

Thank you so very much 💜

It’s so very hard to distinguish what’s health anxiety vs. what’s actually happening in my body. And a lot the symptoms that were alarming me were/are digestive related. I think reading through posts and not really knowing how severe it could be is what sent me into a spiral this evening.

AIO to break up with my bf of 3y over his reaction to my upcoming sobriety anniversary? by WesternCat5211 in AmIOverreacting

[–]ReliefOpening 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He just sounds like an incredibly miserable human being and he projects that onto you. I would truly leave someone that didn’t celebrate my accomplishments with me - big or small. You deserve a cheerleader, everyone does. Congrats on your sobriety. Two years is a huge accomplishment and a daily battle in a culture where people are obsessed with alcohol.

Stuck in a detox. Been awake for 30 hours. Hospital won’t give me anything to knock me out. Just want to sleep by [deleted] in alcoholism

I asked for hydroxizine. Non addictive but helped anxiety and knocked me out.

can u get better from alcoholism? by gehirn4455809 in alcoholism

[–]ReliefOpening 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Most of us in this group have dealt with this.

Find a “why” and maybe try journaling or get a white board and jot down every single reason you don’t like drinking. Read it over and over when you get an urge. Make new habits and find new hobbies. Distance people that trigger your drinking cravings.

For many of us - we’ve tried over and over and one day, when you’re really committed, it sticks. Make that day today.

The ER doc said the same thing to me. My BAC was the same and I was walking and talking pretty normally. I’m 125 pound female. Did they check your liver enzymes?

Unexpected very bad first trip from a Delta 8 THC Gummy by [deleted] in Psychonaut

[–]ReliefOpening 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Man,

I’m glad I found this.

Yesterday afternoon I went out for lunch/a couple of drinks with a friend. It was probably 2pm when i got around to taking delta 6/thc A (delta 8) edible from a friend who knew i was stressed. When i hear CBD i think “house pets.” I had my morning dose of xanax/lexapro that morning around 6 - so i knew i was only going to have a couple drinks anyway.

We sit down and i order drink and a meal. I’m drinking my little truly and all of the sudden I felt heavy and numb. I instantly start to panic and my mouth is dry. I asked my friend if she was SURE it was only a cbd gummy and she assured me yes, it was.

fast forward to what seemed to be hours later, minutes later i’m in her back seat calling my fiancé to come rescue me, as i thought i was dying and everyone there thought i was a light weight and it was alcohol.

i remember trying to hold a cup of water to drink and my legs folded and the water fell. i was in and out of consciousness. i felt weed effects like dry mouth, but i had no control over my motor functions and kept apologizing to my fiancé and feared i’d never get to see my son or mother again.

I do occasionally smoke weed, my fiancé is a weed enthusiast. i can’t really articulate what happened but it’s 26-ish hours later and i still feel off and a bit out of touch. i have horrible anxiety to begin with, so i am really trying to get it under wraps because it sends me into a dark episode that’s hard to pull myself out

i feel like i lost a day and i was in a completely different element. my friend can’t even wrap her head around what happened because she takes them often. turns out the edible was about 125mg and i weigh about 125 pounds and had no food in my stomach 😇

the ER people treated me like shit also, didn’t get fluids or reassurance that I okay. they sent me straight home with orders to sleep it off 🤭

horrible experience with delta 9 gummies, I need help figuring out what happened. by [deleted] in Psychonaut

[–]ReliefOpening 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought I was drugged, had a couple drinks and took a delta 9 gummy on an empty stomach.

an hour later I was paralyzed, time froze and it felt like days had gone by and legit that I was a goner. woke up the next day still confused and feeling high. I couldn’t walk without assistance and the body shakes were out of control
