SYMPTOMS F WITHDRAWAL ALCOHOL : HOW LONG DOES IT LAST ?

[3dayswithoutit]

I was a heavy drinker until 3 days ago, let's say 1-2 bottles of wine a night (mixed with sparkling water)every day. I have completely stopped 3 days ago because I couldn't bear myself..I took on some sport 3 days a week..I'm suffering big tiredness, nauseas sometimes..For those who experienced it, can you tell me how long before I get better ?

I know its probably too early for a subject like that

I haven't experienced it personally but I've seen my ex go through it lots of times. As best I can work out the worst of the physical effects are over within a week or two, although disrupted sleep patterns can continue for longer.

I would strongly recommend you see your doctor, though.

I dont know, but just wanted to say well done! (I agree about seeing gp, though)

well done

Have you googled it?
I'm sure there are herbs you can take that help detoxify your liver.
I would also second the suggestion that you see your GP.

I haven't been through it but I have nursed people going through and it is horrible. Definitely see your gp they can prescribe tablets to help you withdraw with less side effects and refer you to specialist counselling to help you cope (if you want it) congratulations and good luck

This site was my saviour

There's lots of advice and support there.

Good Luck

I may just do that, I dont have any cravings at all (I'm happy I have stopped) but it's just hard to cope feeling tired all the time. Thank you all for your messages !!! xxx

I had a friend who used to be given massive doses of Vit B when she was drying out. She was always under medical supervision when she did. Vit B may help you a bit. Well done for stopping! You will start feeling better soon.

well done for stopping
