​@hvz0078 hi friend. 4 months since my last drink. The good days are amazing and are more frequent. By good I mean energised and very active. The flat days are majority but for many reasons, life is complicated isn't it. Within the flat days is the learning. What behaviours lead to a flat day? Could be what you eat, how much energy you expend, how much rest you have or allow yourself. A whole lot of experimental self care is what it's all about. Take care 👍

A lot of people drink because it relieves their anxiety, sadness and stress. If you don't deal with what is causing those feelings in the first place (and you can't when you're under the influence) you will continue to feel them. It's not necessarily a withdrawal, you're just feeling your emotions instead of numbing them with alcohol. Still, quitting the alcohol and recognizing those feelings is the first step in dealing with them.

Im 11 years older than you I just quit a few months back , why? Because I was sick of making a fool of myself while drunk and the physical decline I could see in my body soar side bloating , bad anxiety ,suicidal thoughts , over weight , you have to deal with the issues that make you want to get pissed, its not just wanting to have a laugh , whats so funny about waking up the next day in your own piss thats what happened to me a few times and thats where I said enough is enough (a grown man in that state ? , no more hangovers for me no more guilt no more anxiety ,depression , I've got rid of all the things associated with the booze, drink buddies , bars all that stuff , its a big world theres plenty to do without drinking .. Take things slowly day by day but make a diary and one thing you have to really want to quit , if you don't then you'll go back to it .. Good luck I hope you'll see the light before you hit your lats 40s like me...

I felt the same Finn, 5 months ago. The last time I had my last drink the Depression after drinking all I wanted to do is get wasted an sleep. Next day depression was even worse with the hang over. Anxiety worse. Right now as I write this, I'm still fighting my demons, I have Alot of anxiety, dealing with horrendous head aches , dissociation an memory issues. At times I think " I should have never left the booze, if I'm feeling this ill", but then I think about how much worse I actually felt that last day I drank. And I will never go back. Because I know at the end of this tunnel, is a healthy Sober and happy me, waiting to show me how beautiful life is. I know you'll find the courage to drop the bottle an do what's best for you .

i thought you were going to dodge the question with your vague and "everybody is different" answer. I was looking for not a definitive answer or time-frame but in essence the HOPE and the assurance that at some point the "Anxiety, Sadness, Stress, Headache, Foggy Mind, Fatigue, and Irritability" will possibly fade. You restless night description and experience were EXACTLY the answer I was seeking. Same with the anxiety, sadness and etc. So there is HOPE and your video eventually gives that.......... thank you. Just need to know the "mother ship" was out there to get on! a week, a month, stronger and stronger. Confidence and encouragement.

Wow. I’ve just been through a very rough ride. Alcohol withdrawal after a 2 month heavy drinking period caused me all sorts of problems, at one point I thought I was going to die. Extremely intense and irrational emotions (I thought I was going mad), terrible insomnia, paranoia, anxiety and depression, horrible brain fog, exhaustion etc etc. It lasted for about 4 weeks but I feel fine now. Sleeping well, calmer and I feel like my normal self again which is a huge relief. Agreed there was no nirvana moment. I just got a little bit better each day until I woke up one day and realised I was fine. I still feel a bit sensitive but through the worse of it. I guess the chemicals in my brain have normalised. Hopefully this gives hope to other people going through it.

I recall Kevin talking about using affirmations and I can confirm that they have helped enormously in the past with other issues and I'm certain they will support me now. For anyone who hasn't tried affirmations, they work by teaching your subconscious to believe each affirmation. Your subconscious does not judge, so repeating an affirmation out loud at least 10 times every day will gradually become a NEW BELIEF about yourself. In addition to Kevin's 'I persist' and 'I am determined', may I suggest a phrasing that worked amazingly for me after an emotional trauma long ago. 1: 'Every day and in every way, I get stronger and stronger' 2: 'Every day and in every way, I get more and more positive' 3: 'Every day and in every way, I trust myself more and more' 4: 'I am now in the process of making positive changes' You can create your own too.. just as long as there are no negative words or phrases used and you keep them short.

most importantly, don't allow yourself to be blackmailed by anxiety and its symptoms, it is false fear missfiring at a time when it is not needed, the anxiety mind will not understand this until you break the cycle of worrying about the anxiety and get on with fulfilling activites that engage you. anxiety is unpleasant but not dangerous! it is a bluff of the mind, and by the way i went through a stage of CHRONIC anxiet where i couldn't leave my home, breaking the cycle is easy if you know how

I had sadness and depressed mood only for a week. To sleep well and for anxiety I used powdered kava, it helped so much! In fact, I haven't slept so well for a while; however, my profound symptom was fatigue and feeling tired. I couldn't understand why I felt like this if I slept well. There is also supplement you can take to support your brain function and fight depression, it calls 5 HTP. Taking gaba before you go to sleep along with kava can make a huge difference. Still, not drinking is better. My overall health improved and as a result I performe better and feel better. Hope this helps. Good luck everyone!

At the age of 15 I started drinking and smoking weed. I do have the predisposition for alcoholism. While i've drank in times of stress, my body has never become physcially dependent. At this point i'm sure it's psychological. My drug of choice has typically been marijuana. At first recreationally and then finding that without it, i have trouble eating or sleeping. I'm not sure if this is the cannabis treating my depression/anxiety, or if my body is chemically dependent to keep a balance. I don't feel the need neccesarily when i'm working or otherwise preoccupied. But i always have a pressure in my head, mostly in my temples. Whenever i drink or smoke, it goes away. Watching my father and our long line of drunken irishmen, i decided not to use the drink as my crutch. Basically I feel like your channel is a good tool not just for alcoholics but for addicts in general. Very inspirational

I'm in my early menhood years and , I began drinking when I was 15 years old. I started with beer and till now , even thought I've tried drinking hard alcohol, I still prefer beer.I'm now fully awere that I'm addicted, amnd my efforts to stop so far have been in vain.One week ago, I was couting towards my second week off, and then i slipped again. Sorry for going offtrack.

Im on day 6, I get cravings but not too bad. I wake up feeling great but the cravings start around 3pm and I need to get the evening meal in me to get them to drop. I have been taking sleeping pills to get a reasonable nights sleep and they dont seem to have any adverse effect on me but I know when I do stop them I will have to go through that sleepless withdrawal but I want to get through the alcohol first and I'll sort the sleeping pills later.

That takes at least two weeks to subside, although for some it's a week. I found drinking water really helps. Eating sugar because your body is used to the sugar from alcohol. Someone once told me always get desert after dinner .

These are all emotions that we feel regardless of alcohol. I felt depressed and anxiety as a child and they followed me into my adulthood. It’s more of physical destruction alcohol does to the body. I find it harder to stop caffeine than alcohol. Alcohol helps you deal with stress, I see more people happy with alcohol than without it. Everything is good only in moderation.

I quit on nov 26th 2018. It’s been about 93 days. The first month was fine. But after about 30 days, weird feelings came about. Depression, anxiety, hopelessness, lack of motivation. Is this post acute? Does anyone know what I am taking about? Physically I feel fine. Lost a ton of weight. But mentally it’s been tough. All of my emotions are in high definition. It seems to come and go. Some Periods of feeling down last a little over 2 weeks.

Could be just a migraine. There's a big tendency to blame the withdrawal when it could be any number of other things.

It can be tough. There's always a lot of work to do. It's the one thing about unplugging from alcohol, we lay ourselves bare to our inner selves. And there is the source of anxiety with no easy escape. However, it's in the confrontation that the answers are to be found, if you get me. It's a painful process, but it is a process.

i am in alcohol PRISON , i have a family and almost 2 year old son and i managed to hide my addiction so far but with every day i am slipping deeper and deeper and all i want to do is have another drink, stuff myself with food and then throw up because i don't wanna get fat. i probably have bulimia and definitely alcohol addiction but i can't change anything...it's affecting everything, finances, sex life, social skills, i have big time hangover right now and i'll probably drink tonight again while my wife is sleeping and i can't do a damn thing about it

It has to come from the person. He's a functional alcoholic. Sounds like he has his family, (at least you.) Probably a job and a house. He also might see an alcoholic as the homeless bum, the guy who gets plastered stumbling out of a bar. If he has gone to an AA meeting he'll hear these horror stories. People drinking hand sanitizer, loosing everything, and he'll say, "That's not me. I'm in control and I just enjoy to have a few drinks every day."
