    anxiety

    Today is my 16 AF. Everything was ok (i don't have crave) until yesterday, when suddenly out of sudden i had anxiety attack, and also today. Well, i had anxiety attack before after i drunk in the past, and I though it will be gone after I stop drinking.

    Can anyone please help me to answer these questions below:

    1 Is anyone here had the same experience like me?
    2. Is anxiety part of withdrawal?
    3. Any advice?

    Thank you...:h
    AF today

    anxiety

    For me, I have anxiety anyway, but most of my problems with that and paranoia are a few days after I stop drinking, not a few weeks. Also, when I'm getting ready to start my period, I evidently have a large hormonal surge and get horrible cravings and anxiety.

        Love, Yes, anxiety is a major part of withdrawal. It greatly subsides as you achieve more sober time and also will immediately return upon drinking.

        Amino acids are very helpful in relieving anxiety as are Omega fatty acids. There is also a back flower remedy called, Rescue Remedy that is helpful.

        Congratulations on your 16 days!! Taking a walk or light exercise is very helpful! Keep going....it is all worthwhile!!

          Lovemylife,

          Congrats on your 16 AF days, that's terrific!
          Anxiety is a problem I've battled for many years, before I started to drink, while I was drinking, of course.
          I was on Lexapro but it didn't help at all. I switched to an herbal product back in January (before I quit drinking). It's called Amoryn & takes care of anxiety & the resulting depression. Take a look at the website, see what you think. It absolutely did wonders for me - I have since quit drinking & smoking

          You can PM me if you like & I'll answer any questions.
          Wishing you the best!
