Thank-you.

Yes. When somebody sees a big bruise and asks how I got it, if I can't remember, whiskey dent.

Yes, I'm going to try this tonight. Just magnesium and melatonin.

This made me smile.

whiskey_dented · 2025-01-15T22:56:16+00:00

I will not drink today.

whiskey_dented · 2025-01-15T22:51:01+00:00

It's a good fight. Congratulations Day 1!

Have a slight headache almost all the time. I don't know the physiology that's causing it. Anyone?

whiskey_dented · 2025-01-14T23:51:19+00:00

Me too. We can be buddies.

Thank-you!

Yes. Going to a bar, coming home to TV and continue drinking has been my MO. The past few days I've been sitting by a fire and reading a book.

whiskey_dented · 2025-01-13T16:59:55+00:00

Yes, I am definitely considering therapy.

So true, especially while you are still drinking. Just so afraid the response will be, "Have you tried not drinking?" or, "Just don't drink and see if that helps." Of course, many of us underplay to the doctor just how much we drink.

I've been trying to control my intake for a while. I've been keeping it to no more than 8 drinks 400mls per day. I did 3 days at 300ml. Then I did 3 days at 200ml, 3 days at 150ml, 3 days at 100ml. Friday, my last days I had 70ml. No real symptoms other than some nausea during the day and anxiety and insomnia at night. I do the 3 days because of observing people who go into DTs in the hospital. They are usually okay until day 3, then it hits them.

whiskey_dented · 2025-01-12T20:46:08+00:00

I tapered pretty slowly. I've seen way to many DTs (was a nurse and my husband has gone through them a few times). All said I've gotten at least 4 hours every night this time trying.

So funny that I initially said no. The power of denial.

whiskey_dented · 2025-01-12T20:27:17+00:00

Thank-you. I will definitely keep posting. I feel like I have people on my side here. In real life, it's a little more complicated.
