Hi guys, how you all doing?
Dotty, so sorry to to hear about your husband. How are you doing today? Do you have support etc?
Havehope, the tapering will bring your mood down as you withdraw unfortunately and it is a protracted process. I hate to say this, but the alcohol will likely exacerbate that too as its a depressant. I know the first drink feels nice but the effects on the brain when that initial high is gone is to lower our happy chemicals. It is such a difficult path and I have so often swapped one addiction for another which is so very easy to do. Hopefully this won’t happen to you
Hi Laura, welcome to you. Have you tried magnesium spray ? I am finding its really helping my sleep and if you rub it into your legs, it might just help with RLS thats so common with withdrawals.
