Hi everyone,
My name is Danielle. I recently started counseling because my anxiety and depression feel out of hand. I cry very frequently, I never used to cry. I think this all started when I stopped drinking heavily. I feel better not drinking, but I feel socially isolated. I don't have a good support system. I feel like I have a hard time making friends and connecting with people. It felt so easy when I was drinking.
Sorry u having a tough time I just stop drinking 2 day's ago and it been hell I feel everything that I was numbing and it feels like I'm going crazy
Keep up the good work. It's been 2 years for me. I'd like to say it gets easier, but I can't.
When I drink I enjoy myself is the hangover effects that gets me
I enjoyed myself a little too much when I was drinking. I'm not proud of some things I did during that period in my life.
Is hard because my bf is alcoholic and when everybody what a drink they come over to my house
I had to leave my bf that was an alcoholic. We were bad for each other because we both liked to drink. We did cocaine too. It's so shameful.
I'm still with of but I'm afraid for him because I want to get help and he don't think he have a problem. And u drink heavily daily. I been drinking since my teen year's 😖 I'm so confuse Rightnow
It will be hard to stop if he's drinking. That's how I felt at least. I drank almost everyday for almost 10 years
It only been 2 days being clean and I'm anxious can't sleep my skin is itchy and irritated and feel funny alcohol really have affect on the body
I been so depressed and my anxiety is so bad
Anxiety and depression and alcohol have rob me of my life
Me either
You may want to attend a few AA meetings. I know of no other better or larger support group for a former drinker. Or NA as NA considers alcohol a drug too.
Both have a goal of helping one another deal with life without drinking or using other drugs. Your anxiety and depression are part of your life right now, and I think it's great that you have stopped drinking. But you are needing a good support system, and I can't think of any better ones. My best wishes for you.
Thank you. Yes, my counselor did recommend AA meetings as well. Have you ever attending a session?
Ok, yes I have attended AA and NA, even though those are not my issues. Usually there to support someone who couldn't drive or needed a ride.
