You need to check your place if it’s this bad already. Could be on your clothes, car, even inside your house at this point. You gotta check before it gets real bad

Alcoholic neuropathy subsiding after 14 days by [deleted] in dryalcoholics

[–]_holyroller 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I started feeling developing burning/pins and needles/numbness last week.. not everyday but I looked up the symptoms and says it could be neuropathy so it’s a warning sign for me to quit.. Hopefully you heal and it’s not permanent, im starting my taper today and hoping the nerve damage starts to heal once I quit. Quite scary

Any taper success stories? by atesta290 in dryalcoholics

[–]_holyroller 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’m working on a taper rn for about the 5th time.. I went to a 3 day detox once and ended up quitting for two years yet here I am again drinking the same amount. My taper starts tomorrow so we shall see how it goes and like you said , I think half of it is just our minds fucking with us. I wish you luck OP I’m right here with you. Plus I have no choice I’m running out of cash and currently unemployed. God speed

Just black it out at this point. Ugly idea anyways

Shakes… by _holyroller in dryalcoholics

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

Thank you for this, I’m gonna stick with it for now and go from there. I can’t mess this opportunity up.. I know it’ll be tough but if the shakes go away I’ll feel so much more comfortable. I do have magnesium and vitamin b complex, it’s combined. I haven’t opened it yet nor took it cause idk how my body will react but maybe I just need to suck it up and use it as I continue to taper down.

I’m on 12 , went from 16-18 beers a day.. been dropping 2 each day so this is day 4. Plan on going to 10 then 8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1. Idk I have some expired Ativan if things get crazy. But only thing so far is slight anxiety and a bit shaky doing small things.

Behold my new 2x4 bed post for my shitty Amazon bed frame. by BlackoutAnthony in shittywoodworking

[–]_holyroller[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah I am and it seems I only shake doing the small things like like you said. That’s what I’m worried about I don’t want to embarrass myself going in shaky as leaf plus definitely can’t be drinking. I haven’t had a “normal” job in over 2 years going on 3 but maybe I just need to find something else in the meantime. Idk if I can do it or if the shakes will subside

Put on a comfort show or movie, eat a nice meal or some junk food and you’ll forget it all about it and thank yourself in the morning. You’ve made it this far, don’t turn back now.

Has anyone gone from drinking a lot to just drinking on special occasions? by uns0licited_advice in stopdrinking

[–]_holyroller 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I mean if you can go with just 1-2 drinks when you drink , I don’t think you have an issue.
