I know from past experiences that it does get better. Each time it happens I think the worst though. The feeling of helplesness and fear can be very overwhelming. The alcohol "withdrawal" was a 3 day binge of drinking to get rid of the symptoms, which in turn only made them worse. Such a vicious cycle ;o)
The "asking for help" part is hard. I know I have to, but those thoughts in my head say that nobody will understand. They are unrealistic thoughts, I know. That's how my mind seems to work though.
It is getting better, hour by hour, day by day.
I hope you are doing good! Thanks for the input
