Hey guys!

Day 3 for me. No booze, no cigs. I feel loads better, but I am sick! Swollen glands, sore throat, headache. I deserve it though, my body is rebelling. :H

Anyone else get sick as the result of a bender?

And, yes!, as far as getting sick there have been times when I thought I was going to die, really. And it only got worse the older I got. Wine in particular made me DEATHLY sick!

Well shit

Good job on Day 3!!!!!

I think it's just the time of year for illness....plus your immune system is down from all the drinking. Get some Vit C in you, 1000mgs per day, and that will at least shorten the length and hopefully the strength of the cold.

Baby yourself, and feel better!

Thanks everyone!!!!

I went to breakfast this AM, and went to a movie with a friend.

Ruby...made the chicken soup, sans the chicken (vegetarian). I made a homeade remedy that I found online....warm water with a fresh lime, salt and honey. Still have really swollen tonsils, but I feel a little more relaxed.

Thanks for all the kind words. love you all!

Yep it used to take me at least 3 or 4 days to feel better after a binge. Day 1 was not too bad as I would be completely hungover and just sleep it off. Day 2 I would hate myself but not allow myself to think about it too much as I was still too ill and fragile so I would just eat it off. Day 3 was always the worst as that was when the true realisation of what a fuckwit I was and then the self loathing would kick in along with the the shaky feeling and the anxiety. Day 4 I would be a box of birds and could run a small country with one hand tied behind my back. So of course I would drink again........
You have done so well done on 3 days but dont let it suck you in again when you feel better as it always did me.

CKE,
Good job on 3 days AF! Sorry you are sick....sounds like you are doing all the right things to feel better. Make sure and keep the clear fluids coming....they will flush the poisons out of your system. By all means listen to BH about not letting the beast suck you in again when you start feeling better!

Well shit

Glad you are feeling better....yes, I always seemed to get the invincible "I can handle this!!!" feeling normally about Day 3 or 4 which is why I've never been past it. Keep your self as busy as you can for the next couple days......

Get plenty of rest!!!
