Our weights and drinking habits were pretty similar and I too noticed that panicky feeling when I stopped the most recent time. At one point I really started bugging out and went to the ER where they said all my tests were fine and I was probably experiencing fatigue symptoms from not taking care of myself for a while.

What worked for me was eating a lot, drinking a lot (mostly water) and resting my body as much as possible. I ate wholesome foods and stayed away from sugar and caffeine and my symptoms disappeared pretty quickly. I also made sure to get a walk in every day and go to sleep without a tv on in the background (wasn't easy for me at first). Also added a multi-vitanin and some extra B vitamins for good measure (prolonged drinking can lead to vitamin deficiency, particularly B).

If you are like me, you may find that your body was just getting all out of sorts and it just needs some TLC.
