      Just the bumpy road I guess, nothing has happened to upset me and make me turn to booze...

          So, what are your plans now? You did 8 days. So well done. That was a massive effort mate.

            I would drive to the bottle shop but it's a 2 minute walk!

              I am here Pan and Dave. How can I be of help? Have you stopped drinking Dave? Are you taking benzos with drinking? Very bad idea. I used benzos to get through withdrawal, but then you must taper off of the benzos as they are highly addictive too.

                Well, that can't be good. I also live that close to a bottle shop and it has a huge sign out the front that says "Need a Drink?" LOL. I managed to ignore that eventually.

                  Sea, I went through hell withdrawing from the benzos.

                    You and me both Pan
                    I was hospitalized twice to get off them. When I first went for help with my drinking in the 80's, they put me on them for years. I went into rehab in 2000 and they took me off of them, it was hell on earth.

                      I'll go back on Diazepam (against your advice...lol) and stop drinking again...

                      I only use benzo's a week at a time (with at least a week inbetween) 10mgs tapering to zero, over 5 or 6 days, so I can actually sleep, without a belly full of booze and it stops me wanting a drink and feeling edgy and shaky..

                      I'm careful not to replace booze with diazepam, I will make sure I never get hooked on pills...

                        Morning all.
                        As Pan said, its a bump in the road Dave. Not to be ignored, but its def something you can look on as a learning experience.

                          In my opinion, it is ok to use them for withdrawal symptoms for about a week, but then taper down, so sounds like a good plan Dave, and well done on the 8 days.

                            Dave, seriously, I am so anti-pills of any kind. I was started on Temazepam for sleep when I broke my shoulder. I never thought I would be addicted to anything apart from the wine. Well, it creeps up on you. Valium is better I believe, because that's what a lot of people are given to get of Temazepam, but still really bad.

                            But, you are an intelligent person, so I believe you do know what you are doing.

                            What can we do to help you with the booze issue?

                              Hi Sea :-)

                              Have either of you tried Campral? I'm thinking of giving it a go...

                                Unfortunately Pan, there is nothing you can do to help me, only I can do that...
