Hi-I am glad to be here. I have a concern that i want to express/ask. I have been sober 14 days now with the first 12 days taking campral, however it made me very drowsy so i stopped. i am still ok with not drinking but feel almost flu like physically. Any comments?

Hi soulsurvivor and welcome!!

Firstly, well done on your 14 days - that is so great!!!

Lots of people get lots of physical symptoms when they stop drinking - feeling flu-ey, headaches, changes of sleep pattern etc etc. I think of it as the body de-toxing itself (but then I'm no medic!!). Just keep it up!!!! and drink lots of water .....!!

Hi soulsurvivor,

Nice name - Welcome!
I do remember feeling kind of sick for a while too, but it gets better!
As recommended, drinks lots of water, eat well, get a little fresh air & exercise, etc.
Congratulations on your 14 AF days, that's terrific

Wishing you continued success!
Lav

Not giving our body what we've accustomed it to hurts. Withdrawal feels like the flu for a while. But, given whats going on today, if you've have been exposed to someone with the flu, run fever, have ANY medical concerns, see a doctor or some medical professional.
