We will NOT give up on you! Can you (or have you) gone to the Doctor for some anti-anxiety medication? I used Ativan for the first few days. Ativan is actually also used for people that have epileptic seizures, they prevent them. They can make you feel relaxed (but not loopy) and prevent withdrawal related seizures. If you can, I would suggest talking to your Doctor (not easy, I know, but SO worth it!)
Please do not ever quit quitting. I know it seems a daunting task when you think about it, but it CAN be done. I never thought I'd get off the roller coaster. I drank a 12 pack of beer per day, it was as natural to me as breathing! Not only have I quit alcohol, but now I am on my 8th day of not smoking.
Do NOT expect too much out of yourself. Focus on today, this hour, this minute...whatever it takes. The longer you go AF, the easier it will get, I promise. And please keep coming here, we can help you get through the squirelly moments!

Jewels,

If your withdrawals are very, very bad, (I have no idea how much you drink so I can't advise,) but seizures, strokes and heart attacks CAN occur with alcohol withdrawal.

Go to a clinic and ask for a few day's worth of Librium. If you don't want it on your medical record, don't use your insurance information and pay for the pills outright without using insurance. Librium is amazingly cheap.

Librium is the gold standard for withdrawing from alcohol safely.

Please check in and let us know how you are doing.

Love,
Cindi

I'm here! I've been looking over the forums the last couple of says. Not in a mood to post, but when I saw everyones support and concern, I had to let you all that I'm ok. I'm not sober again. I feel that until I get that 100% knowing, and the strength of my will, I won't quit. Anyways, that makes me feel like I should lurk instead of posting.

I can't give good advice to newcomers, in my state, and I can't be a sober me to everyone else. And to make you all worry; I'm very sorry.

Hi Jewels!
It's been a while since I've been on, having been away with various things.
I too feel like lurking instead of posting. But then, reading everyone's various thoughts etc, has made me think that YES I can still post without conjuring up mass pearls of wisdom, & feel ok to just burble away like I'm doing now. I'm not sober yet either. But it doesn't mean we can't just voice our thoughts in a random way just to put them into words in front of us.
There, that makes perfect sense doesn't it?!!
I just feel inspired to post as a morale - booster, to let people know I'm part of this community.
I'm just........here.

Hi Everyone - hope you all are doing well. Jewels, I'm glad you checked back in. You know, we all have to work through things in our own way. I think everyone on this site has tried many times to quit and the ones who are AF finally had something kick in that put them over the hump. I think if you really want it, that will happen for you at some point. Please don't feel bad for not being there yet. Just know that we are all there for each other. Both Jewels and Beagle - I don't think anyone here would want you to not post just beause you're not ready to get sober yet. To me, everything on this site is helpful - hearing the plight of people who are struggling, and hearing from people who have some sobriety under their belt!:heart:
