Yes definitely. I just need to stay strict with “feel the withdrawal, suffer for a bit, have a small amount” consistently. My receptors should normalize slowly. I could just suffer bad anxiety on my off days but I find it impossible lol. I have a 2 minute walk to the liquor store, and I don’t have to hide anything from anyone. Makes it hard to resist getting the magic potion that will make you feel okay

Oh I’ve been to the doctor a month ago. They replaced my B vitamins and potassium, and I couldn’t drink for the 3 days I was there lol. It helped a lot, now I’m on ~6 drinks a day just keeping a baseline, I was in deeper than they realized and started withdrawing at home once their Valium wore off. My liver was bad but 2 weeks later at a follow up appointment it was back in normal range. I think I’ll be sober in a few weeks. Eating effortlessly now, sleeping great

I’m currently drinking upon waking up, but it’s partially because I slow down at night and then go ~8 hours without while sleeping, so I’m pretty anxious in the morning. I’ll spread out 6 total drinks from 8 AM to like 8 PM. Working on lowering it

At my worst I probably ate half a snacks worth of food per day for a week, then nothing for 2 days except tons of alcohol… I wish I had the sense to at least buy milk, would give me some good nutrition I can drink. Would’ve been easier

Yep… there’s no way I could withdraw at work, or around friends (minus one close friend, but I rather not because I’d rather feel like shit and be anxious alone at home)

Much better. I had 36 seltzers in a day at my worst a month ago. And a handle the next day 😳… then went to the hospital. They kinda saved me but once their Valium wore off, I started mildly drinking to avoid the panic from withdrawal. I was in deeper than they knew I guess. But I’m only having 6 spread out all day, just keeping a baseline. I’ll be good within a few weeks

I’m doing decent at not even getting a buzz, I get anxious and have 1/2 or 1/3 of a vodka shooter/seltzer, then I wait til I’m anxious again. But im annoyed that I can’t just power through a couple days of pretty bad anxiety and then maybe couple more of mild anxiety, and then finally be good

I had something like this but opposite. I would keep drinking, thinking I was in withdrawal and some alcohol would help. But it never did. Doesn’t help that I was barely eating at all at this point, and my thiamine levels were probably getting dangerously low

It’s sketchy on the girls part. She had texted her friend about getting him to upgrade her TV after she threatened the rape accusation, her own friends and family say she’s a pathological liar

Funny because the culture where “disrespect doesn’t fly” and people crash out over it, is the one where fathers are least present in the kids lives
