I have been drinking regularly for the past 4 weeks or so. By regular, I mean a few drinks each day (1 to 3) and then binging on the weekends (usually saturday & sunday) not until I get sick, but until I’m heavily intoxicated. Before these past few weeks, I’d maybe drink heavily once or twice a month, but I got married a few weeks ago and on the honeymoon we drank a lot (drinks were included w/ the price). Since I returned from my honeymoon, I’ve found it kind of hard to not have 1 or 2 drinks in the evening and binging on the weekends. Now that I’ve went back to normal (not drinking hardly at all), I’ve been having horrible headaches and some really random nausea. The headaches are different than normal ones. They seem sharp and very painful, and last all day. I seem to have a few other symptoms, but nothing major. The headaches are my biggest problem.

I say all that to say, is it possible that I could be having a very light case of alcohol withdrawal? Please, any help would be greatly appreciated!

How Do I Get Out of This

has anyone ever stopped drinking after drinking 1 to 3 drinks a day? Did you experience any symptoms of withdrawal? For me, things are louder for some reason, anyone else experience this?

It seems as though I have the worst anxiety after a few days of drinking…is there any way around this for me to continue drinking but still be on the meds?

My father has an addiction to alcohol. How can I help in this situation? I work near East Lyme, Connecticut. Are there any city or town or voluntary or professional group might help me with this?

Mom has an addiction to alcohol. How do I step in this problem? I live close to Berlin, Connecticut. Are there local government or non-profit or private firms that might help me with this?

Mom has an addiction to alcohol. How can I step in this personal problem? I live close to Rutland, Vermont. Are there any municipal or cooperative or private firms would help me do what’s right for this situation?

We tried once before, and failed. I got clean through N.A. She wont go. She has stopped Meth for 68 days and now wants off alcohol. She weights 98 lbs and drinks more than any1 person i know, so the detox is going to tough. Are thier medications her doc can give her to help? Foods? Liquids? HELP!!!

Libras Exposed! We are Narcissistic—google it if u dont know the term.

As a libra male..i know this for sure. This will let you know how to bring down those of us that think the world cannot live without us or that we are special and hurt u Just out of therapy…i know the truth about myself so i wanted to help others defend themselves against emotional hurt. So here’s how to:
1. make a libra male leave you (if thats your goal)
2. to make a libra male want you more.
Ignoring us..taking away what we desire and NEED most…ATTENTION

We use the SILENT TREATMENT when we are defeated….know, read and use this to your advantage. A libra hurt my sister…so now im exposing all of us!

We might live in 2008 but the stigma attached to Addiction and Alcoholism and Depression is still very much alive. Addiction of Alcohol is not new but the consequences still have to be dealt with. The anxiety of the afterlife post-treatment is a reality we all have to face. I mean, who wants the guy in the credit department to know that you have not been on leave but in a rehab? That nosey next door neighbour? Do we really want him knowing your greatest weaknesses? What about that prim and priss Church congregation member who does not even like the colour of your Sunday ties? They all might have suspected something was wrong when you were passed out on the front porch at 2 o’clock in the afternoon but they did not have the nitty-gritty.. But to come clean and announce to the world that you a recovering addict. Not an easy one.
