8 Cans of Beer.

[AsahiDry]

Hello everyone,

I am 45,male,married,good wife,two kids 11 and 6.

All evenings I drink 8 cans of beer. I never drink at daytimes though hardly miss unless I don`t catch cold. Last time I was sober on Jan 20th something.

My main problem is I am always tired during the day time.

Please give me some advice.

Hello and Welcome AD
Alcohol depletes your nutritional intake, especially B vitamins, which give us energy. Believe me, I was drinking 12 beers a day and could not believe how run down I was until I ended up in the hospital and they gave me a bag of liquid vitamins intravenously. I feel like a new person, lots of energy. Do u want to stop your 8 beers a day or just curious about your lack of energy? Lots of support and info here. I wish u well.

Hi AsahiDry.
Alcohol will have that effect on you.
I remember going to work every day for years and being so tired every day. Easing up on the beer will help of course. Perhaps making some days when you don't drink at all or taking less would help.

Hi Popeye, if I don`t drink or drink less, I can`t sleep at night.

Ok, then you are in the right place. Do u have the MWO book? You can download it right from this site. It is a very comprehensive guide to getting off the alcohol and boosting your nutritional intake and exercise. It is wonderful. We are always here for support.

Sleep problems are common in early withdrawal. There are many holistic remedies for this: Melatonin, Calms Forte, Valerian root, 5 htp, to name a few.

You can call me Sea.lol. Seacailin is just Gaelic for my real name. The book is a great place to start. Not everyone uses meds, including me, just the supplements and CD's and the support that I get here. Which is second to none.

Ok Sea, I know I ll have difficulty in sleeping in the beginning. From where should I start?

Start with downloading and reading the book; very easy read. Sleeping can be tough for awhile, but it is better to be sleep deprived than malnourished and hungover. As I said, there are many supplements that help with sleep. Check out the Holistic Healing thread. Keep posting and asking questions. There are many knowledgeable people here.
