Hi, rmoniz... I know you say you've been down this road before...and I have no idea how much you've been drinking...but if you think you need medical attention, please get it. Alcohol withdrawal can be dangerous. Maybe an ER doc would give you some meds for a home detox? Hope you feel better soon.

Hi rmoniz, hang in there as Day 1 is always tough. Keep thinking about how great it will be to start your job without hangovers and everything else that comes with AL. This is a great place, you'll find the support you need. Check out the supplements as they help with cravings and getting your body back in balance.

Rmoniz, welcome back and like previously said, dilute all that booze with copious amounts of water ( apparently with lemon juice is good), the shakes an all will go in a couple of days - when I started all this back in December my hands were shaking so badly I had to 'drink' a mug of soup instead of using a spoon cos I could'nt get it to my mouth. You're bound to feel anxious and depressed for a good few days after a binge, but it will lift and suddenly you'll feel really good and you'll be fine for the job, good luck

Hi Rmoniz, your body needs good nutrition right now more than ever. A warm cup of water with lemon juice first thing in the morning helps detox your liver. Porridge with berries and honey for breakfast gives slow release energy, along with a healthy sugar boost. I also find that fresh beet root juice with carrots and ginger works wonders. And drink loads of water, again with a slice of lemon. One day at a time and you will feel better. Best of luck on your new job!

Hi Rmoniz,
I can sympathize with how you feel right now, I have been there many times. Be kind to yourself right now, get rest and drink plenty of water. You should feel better in the next couple of days. Congratulations on your new job! Are you planning on moderating your alcohol consumption or are you going to try to completely abstain? There is a lot of support and advice on here, let us know what we can do to help.

Day 1 AF not feeling too good

Hi rmoniz, I am on day 13 and its the first time ive made it this far. I had headaches for 7 days, sweats, shakes, depression etc. But if you hang in there it does get better, we're not just saying that.
Water is sooo important. I had to force it down. In the early stages of my detox I found getting a light comedy or lovestory out on DVD and curling up on the couch comforting and it kept my mind busy and past a few more hours alcohol free. Also reading magazines, just hibanating really tilli felt strong enough to go out anywhere. Couldnt even face the supermarket for a week. Anyway im here if you need me. Please take care you are doing well!

I can recommend the hibernating - firstly until you are feeling better and secondly whenever a craving or urge strikes. Works for me and that down time is more than made up by the ability to get through the next day.
