This Isnt Normal Is It

[nailit]

Its 10:40 in the morning and I'm plastered.
Judge me all you want!

[ummmm]

It's 9:40.

You're having a blip so don't be too harsh on yourself.

[albaqwerty]

errr, it's 9.40 here lol

xxxx

No Nailit...it certainly isn't normal.

To be frank, my friend, its my opinion that you need some help. Go and have a very frank chat with your GP. He should be sympathetic.

By the way, its only 09:44 !

[nailit]

I mean 9:40

Tried that, just upped my dose. Didn't help

[ummmm]

There's nothing we can say that you don't already know.

Alcohol is a depressant, you know that.

[jackthehat]

I won't judge you but I'm not sure what help you think you'll get on here....

[murraymints]

Nailit... you are going through a tough time.. nobody would blame you... maybe go check your mail and put kettle on xx

[ummmm]

Although I do understand it numbs your feelings.

[Old_Geezer]

I'll let you judge you.
You're still sober enough to post. Is it a token state to take the edge off things ?

[albaqwerty]

The trouble is the numbness wears off.

Blips are bad, some are worse than others.

[anneasquith]

Could be normal for an alcoholic.

[jakep]

To answer your question, No, it's not normal for most people.
I will not judge you and please stop judging yourself. It's fine to post on here but please try and talk to someone. The Samaritans are always there and have been a help to me in the past when I thought I had no one else.

//Could be normal for an alcoholic//
Theres at least 2 other (ex) posters on here that I know of anne who named you as a reason that they don't post anymore. stop stalking me with your vitriol as well, I don't need it, GO AWAY from my posts

[murraymints]

Nailit.. please don't get yourself any more upset than you already are..understandably..... have you eaten ? if not go make a bit of toast or something...

[anneasquith]

Really you have made that up re ex posters, I'll leave you're thread as all you want just now is tea and sympathy, as for stalking, oh you, ? Oh please !!!!

Nailit, you say it’s not normal, and you might not realise it but that’s a positive statement. If you know something is wrong, acknowledging it is the first step to solving the problem, so give yourself a pat on the back for that. Go back to your doctor, have a frank conversation with him, tell him you want help – and accept any help he offers. Good luck. x

[mikey4444]

Nailit....please don't abuse Anne, or anybody else who is trying to help.

You are extraordinarily frank in your posts, and some people may be as frank with their replies.

We want to help. If you think that you have a problem with alcohol, then get help from an organisation that has a proven record....AA.

But first of all, you need to see the Doc.

[ummmm]

Mikey...he's been to the doctor!

[cassa333]

Go and sit in the Dr waiting room now for an emergency appointment. If he sees you plastered at this time of the morning it will be more real that just going tomorrow when you have sobered up.

What else can the Dr do? Can they send you to rehab? I know it might seem a bit daft but have you tried hypnotherapy? It may be able to help as a coping mechanism for the stress that occurs when you are tempted!! Having never been in your situation I don't know.

Sometimes Dr have this theory that if you are 'well enough' to come to the surgery or make an appointment you are not as bad as you think!!!
