Hangover effect long after abstinence??

[scotswhahay]

Hi everybody,

I'm still here n still going strong n at 98 days as we speak and quite over the cravings, drink a bit of soft drink and have taken a little bit of a liking to chocolate which i never had before, but gotta be better than the booze.

However, lately I've been waking up feeling like i have a hangover n almost like i had been drinking, what the??

Is this some form of delayed detoxification this far in?

Is my body having a deeper clean out and expelling toxins??

Seems very strange, anyone expand for me??

cheers

Great going Scots on your AF time. that's huge!

What does your diet look like? too much sugar gives me a hungover, slow, weighed down, clogged up effect/feeling next day. Def look at what you are eating day to day. Any 'junk food' is just that - junk. It messes with our moods and the physical. But a little chocolate and a little soft drink now and then might be okay. Depends on your particular chemical make up i reckon. Check up with a doc as Molly suggests sounds a good idea.

Hungover is not our normal state when not drinking lol. So the fuel you are feeding your body has a big effect.

Another possibility is it might be something else brewing inside. Full Doc checkup/tests sounds the way to go here friend. All the best.
