Hey, remember me? Its ok if you dont lol. Anyways Ive been doing relatively well, Im off all my meds, and I was convinced I was done with all of this. Oh so I thought I could drink again...big mistake. Do any of you guys get major anxiety/panic from drinking? I havent slept all night and my heart has been racing and I feel like Im stopping breathing at times. I drank yesterDAY, I was sober by night, so its not like it was alochol poisening or anything... Sucks that anytime I dont sleep for 1 night, its a B*itch to go to sleep at all, its like I become manic and I start hallucinating and losing touch with reality. Im really scared right now--does anyone have any good tips??

Hi, Katie. I remember you:) I think the best tip I have is something you already figured out for yourself. Don't drink. Some of us don't do well with any sort of changes to our body. Drinking & powerful drugs are two of them. They make us more aware of our bodily functions such as the racing heart. It's uncomfortable.


For now, drink lots of fluids to flush the alcohol out of your system. Get some rest. Hope you feel better soon. Good luck & GBU! (((hugs))) jan

Oh I have already made the executive decision not to drink for the rest of my life. I lie, I will never exceed 2 drinks for the rest of my life (my wedding lol). Anywho, I hope you all are well.
