How bad is people's anxiety the day after drinking. Mine is so bad right now can't see how I'm not going to die. Heart feels weird and mad. What happens to everyone else? I don't deserve any sympathy coz it's all my fault but I just drink to forget sometimes
Hi Les, it's always difficult the day after having a drink sometimes it doesn't effect me the day after other times I'm gripped with anxiety. Don't beat yourself up over it we all need a bit of a break from it and if having a drink every so often isn't going to do any harm, it's when it becomes a habit and self medicating becomes the norm when problems can start.
Hi les, unfortunately hangovers are slot worse and last longer when I medication, you will be fine in a couple of days, but hey I bet you enjoyed it while it was going down, drink plenty water😉
Just so hard my heart is beating really hard and I just feel like I'm going to die chest pains and all sorts
Les, your not going to die, it's your anxiety and the alcohol has made it worse , it will calm down as the alcohol leaves your body, I know it's awful but it will pass,try to lie down and listen to some music anything to get your mind off it, drink some orange juice to get some vitamin c, eat a banana to stop the sick feeling, people have different reactions to Alcohol with meds , it's obvious your not used to the two being mixed, you WILL be ok and you WON'T die, keep drinking water to flush everything out, try to get some sleep 😉
Hi if you've read my stuff you'll see alcohol doesn't like anxiety it relaxes you and you think great I've found something to help. Before I knew it I was drinking every few hours. When I didn't drink I realised I'd made things worse ( self medicating) even when I wasn't drinking a lot. Day after body didn't get fix and as I say anxiety loves to jump in at our slightest low point. Haven't drank for 11 yrs almost died stopping( not exaggerating) then went to work on anxiety bad days and good days my head never gives me a minutes peace. Helps talking to others like me . My doc only gives small amount of diazepam for when I'm I major panic as he knows I could think oh great this helps and could get addicted. Imagine addiction or withdrawal and anxiety( never felt anything like it. Rambling agai but hope this helps❤️
Les - You will be fine ... alcohol dehydrates you and makes the blood thicker, that itself makes your heart work harder. Just drink loads of water, lime juice or irange juice, Vit c tabs and wait for 30 min ... it will subside
I think I have no confidence in my heart anymore. It's got me to 25 years just fine. Now I'm convinced anytime it beats harder it's working too much. Need to try and get rid of that perception I'm guessing. It's only feeding my anxiety
Are you feeling any better today?
I agree.
