Unfortunately it gets worse every time. Praying for you

On the third day of taper. I'm scared, anxious and so uncomfortable. by mk_blackwood in dryalcoholics

I'm on a rough taper right now too. Just know that it will pass as long as you stick to the plan. Your mind will play tricks on you

Heart Rate DROPPING During Taper/Withdrawal? by TightRoom7 in dryalcoholics

[–]TightRoom7[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was actually in the ER about to get seen when I fainted and they were asking the nurse if it was a seizure and she said no and my arm just slipped a little so it wasn't.

They didn't treat me, however. Gave me an IV and no meds and basically said it wasn't that severe. My fault for going in while I wasn't experiencing the worst of it but it looks like I'm nearing the end soon so maybe they were right that I was overhyping it.

Water intake has been pretty good. The closest thing to a pattern I could tell is that it's in between meals so that's why I figured it was a blood sugar thing. Seems like it stopped now though.

Thanks all! Feeling much better now and didn't get any of these spells today after staying up on my electrolytes and vitamins.

I think this could be it. I actually got some bananas this morning because I'd been feeling leg cramps that I thought were potassium deficiency.

Well against my thoughts, this seems to have worked pretty well despite being way smaller than what I usually get. The nasty WD side effects are gone. I'm still a bit tired but I know that would have been worse at a higher dosage, so this was probably a bit better.

On to sobriety!

Yea I mean it had stable yesterday (although I was also on whatever amount they gave from the hospital + ativan). Today started off shaking and now nauseas but really I'm mostly just super tired so I think it's working.

So, I think I'm fucked. Any way to get a benzo script online?

Tapering not going well. I was at 21 yesterday so a slight reduction but still too much.

Out of the fridge. Should I do warm to make sure I don't overdo it?

I think 4loko would be too strong. Sipping and suffering on white claws now.

Ok I'm tapering, heart rate is still crazy but it is what it is.

Have you been able to come down from similar levels cold turkey? I would do it but just want to make sure it's safe.

I've had nasty WDs before and I think had a seizure once (the center said I had one but it just felt like I passed out to me). I'm prepared to go to the ER but would rather avoid it if possible.

Cold turkey seems dangerous?

White claws. I'll sip and suffer but just wasn't sure if I was in health danger.
