I am so fed up with drinking, this time I am finding it harder to stop on my own. I was to the doctors this morning she has ordered fluoxetine for me to help with anxiety and a sleeping aid. I havent touched anything for 4 days but finding it very difficult
Sue, I forget what approaches you've tried so far. Have you tried any meds to help you stay quit?
Hey sue...sorry you are still struggling...did you have any sober time in the 5 months?
Still drinking wine? Still working?
Not touching anything for 4 days is good..but not so good if that is all you can think about.....
Another good thing is you are open with your Dr....
I'm a little tired of being open with Drs as it is tending to back fire on me.
I don't want to relapse again...I am concerned for you that you do not sound excited about being stopped for 4 days...
Sorry to hear this, Sue. Especially after doing well. How long were you sober for and what happened to get you back drinking? Well down with 4 days - it's difficult, especially after a lapse - but you're doing it!
Will your doc prescribe campral to banish the cravings or naltrexone to take the excess pleasure away?
Wishing you all there best
I know it's hard Sue but it sounds like your moving forward and that's always good.
Sue G'day How you going love.
Listen you did well 4 days hats off mate. Aye suggestion , i do not know if this would help but trying watching some horror movies and get some home made strong lemonade on the side aye.
Best of Luck Focus ok ... Focus
