Anxiety sweating cold overnight?
I totally understand I gave up drinking in 2013 I was a binge drinker but still will go on benders for 3days solid and then the next week or so I would be cold sweating until I had the next binge. Anxiety is cruel I have it severely and I have the real bad pains in my left side of the chest neck my jaw hurts it stops me from living my life and I really need help for it. I drank heavy to try and get rid of the anxiety but it made things a he'll of a lot worse but I can tell you its the best thing I've ever done cos I nearly died from heavy drinking was in such a bad way. Keep going things will get easier cold sweating can be from.cold turkey and your body is going through the fight or flight process. Best wishes Jo-Anne
Thanks, I feel terrible it's been like 40 days I quit drinking, I feel sick I feel all symptoms and I get so worry I don't want to accept anxiety is doing this to me.! I feel I have something but dr checked me already :
itsmebandolero, it sounds like you may be still going through withdrawal symptoms. The nightmares you are having are do to you feeling that your life is out of control. Breaking out in a sweat is just one of the symptoms from alcohol withdrawal, the last phase being anxiety setting in. Hopefully your brain will start adjusting soon and you will start feeling better. Hang in there, you took a big step forward..
