Hi Sweetgum.
How are you this morning?

[Sweetgum]

dear all

Still bad, had a truly dreadful night. Hallucinatins, body twitching and the most horrific dreams (when i could sleep) not to mention the sweating, think i got about 2hrs broken sleep, and as i had to get my eldest to school that wasn't good, have to take younger to nursery at midday o not much time to rest x

Sweets, you are doing well, at least you are sober. It will get better.
Well done I am proud of you

Stay with us....
You just have to get through this rough patch. There is a light at the end of the tunnel.
It's worth it not to have any more days like this.

respect it is a tranquilizer

It is important to not drink while taking it. Like any drug, only take as prescribed. Drink buckets of water to help fluch the toxins out. Fresh lemon squeezed in it will help too. Eat small nutritious meals & snacks and take supps. Do whatever you can to help your body repair. AF is the best thing you can do for yourself! It can only get better.

good for you sweets that's a start,capital LETTERS, my dear on the prescription it says no alcohol,DONT,im trying to be frank with you,it could put you into a bad state,matter a fact i would take any booze out of the house,and any means you have of getting it away from you,i can for once in my life say that,ive been down your path,diazepam is a tranquilizer,again dont drink when your on it, good luck to you,ps i hope you husbands a bit more concerned now ? gyco

Sweets, Your liver has the ability to repair. Just give it the tools. Water, nutrition. You don't know that it's your liver so don't let your imagination get the better of you. Just take good care of yourself and let your body do some healing. Your nervous system needs to calm down. Try some broths and teas. Everything will start feeling better. You've made it through the night whereas you were afraid to go to sleep. This is hard and you're doing very well. Hang in there!
