I'm a recovering alcoholic/addict and my heart bleeds for you my friend..
During one of my worst withdrawals (2 liters of vodka and 12 pints of lager every day for a few months) I was in such a state I drank aftershave to kill the panic, puked my ring up and was rushed into hospital and injected with something that brought be down like a ton of bricks.
I was then givin 2mg of Flunitrazepam (Rohypnol) for sleeping and 10mg of Diazepam three times daly for a week and it worked a treat (The Rohypnol knocked me out like a punch from tyson btw). The easy part is doping up on benzos for the withdrawal, the hard part is when you feel better after a week or so and the evel poison whispers in your mind "why did you give me up again ehh, why?" so be on your guard if, no WHEN you get off the shit.The fear coming off alcohol is worse than any other drug I've abused, even coming off smoking smack for a few months was a peice of cake compared to alcohol. Every day is a battle for me.
I pray you will do this Brady, believe in yourself, you have the power inside you if you really want to. I done it and so can you.I really will think of you the next time I pray.
Good Luck xxx
