I've attempted to quit drinking many times. I am now 18 days alcohol free. I'm experiencing many frustrating side effects but the worst is anxiety and shaking. I thought by now it would lessen. I'm wondering if this is my normal anxiety and that drinking just covered it up. I feel constant anxiety ALL OVER. I work in the health care field and just had my medIcation distribution test where my supervisor watched me do a med pass. My hands shook so bad that I had to keep apologizing and almost didn't finish. My doctor gave me a beta blocker. Is anyone familiar with it helping with anxiety and shaking? I'm so embarrassed with this condition.
Hi Kelly in on it just now started 3 days ago it helps the shaken and clamy hands and feet but it gives me a headache fresh air does the world of good do u sleep.okay
I'm afraid to take it. My blood pressure is already low. My heart rate is high though. I sleep alright. But during the day and in the evening I'm anxious and shaky.
I'm like that try fresh air a good walk have u wentto see you're doctor dry reading a book or magazine to take mind off it good hot bath works wonders
Do u think alot
I do think a lot but this is worse since I quit drinking. Unless someone has a dual diagnosis of having anxiety and being an alcoholic it's hard to understand.
I've tried reading but I'm so lightheaded. I live in the USA in PA and it's cold and snowing here. No walking, lol.
Maybe I can try a hot bath.
Thank you for responding.
I'm here if u want to talk
