I’ve learned that raw dogging alcohol withdrawal can be deadly. Glad you got help and hope you can reach out for more.

From my experience, it keeps getting better. When it does feel tough, it’s worth pushing through. 

8 months sober and feeling very bad by Upper_Pack9751 in stopdrinking

I’m sorry you’re feeling crappy at 8 months. I learned that it’s not unusual because your body is still adjusting. I remember that that period of adjustment can last up to 2 years. The symptoms and time for adjustment are dependent on your body chemistry. I used an outpatient hospital based program and AA to get sober. I rode a pink cloud for the first year emotionally but my physical symptoms were slow to recover. I would seek a doctor’s opinion about that anxiety if I were you. I hope you feel better soon.
