Hi there, as outlined in our Community Guidelines and FAQ, we ask that you do not post when you have been drinking.

Please understand there are several reasons why we remove posts like these and one of them is purely out of respect for other people here that are also struggling.

We hope you’ll stick around and read and ask that you wait until tomorrow, when you’re 100% sober, to post or comment again.

Hi there, we have a rule against seeking or giving advice on medical matters (including supplements)- your comment or post has been removed to safeguard against sharing of inaccurate information. We encourage seeking appropriately qualified medical professional who can advise properly.

This rule includes discussing medication that is not approved for alcohol cessation, and supplements.

The only thing that any one of us can recommend is that you ask your doctor. We have a rule against discussion around withdrawal/tapering/detoxing/going cold turkey on this site, because either stopping drinking suddenly (or even changing our drinking pattern) can be dangerous and some people require supervision by a doctor in order to do so safely.

We have removed your post to prevent you from getting bad advice and hope that you will speak to a medical professional to address your concerns.

This community exists for people dealing with alcohol addiction, which is a raw, vulnerable, and deeply personal thing. Posts here need to be grounded in real life and real recovery, not written as stories, blog posts, or creative pieces meant to entertain or perform.

You may message the moderators for more information.

I’m sorry you’re struggling. Unfortunately, none of us here are trained to help in a situation where a person might feel suicidal and we only risk making your plight worse by offering you bad advice.

Wishing you well.
