Alcoholism Recovery & Treatment

Question by gyver: Alcohol withdrawal after drinking every weekend?
How long do you have to drink for ur body to experience withdrawals from alcohol? I started drinking only every weekend for about 2 years or so. The last time i drank i had maybe about 2 beers and later that night i started feeling anxious and scared for no reason. I regularly have panic attacks when sober because thats just how i am. Was it a panic attack or a withdrawal symptom?

Withdrawel after 2 beers? No.

You might build a habit drinking every weekend, but you will not build a physical dpendance, which causes withdrawel symptoms when you stop. It takes weeks of constant drinking to build any sort of physical dependency
You would know it if it was a true withdrawel from alcohol, it is one of the worst.

Question by lloyd Schwartz: will the withdrawal symptoms from abusing benadryl be real bad. i’ve been taking 100 pills almost every day?
i didn’t take any for 4 days, and i had HUGE anxiety attack. i’m really worried about the detox. i’ve already been in treatment twice for alcohol in the last year. i wazs addicted to meth for 14 years. i used alcohol to help me beat that. in 4 years i became a full blown alcoholic. when i was in treatment for the alcohol problem, i started taking benadryl. 6 months at approx. 100 pills a day adds up to A WHOLE LOT OF PILLS

Yeah it kills brain cells. Also damages your liver. Chronic alcoholics are droolers and slurrers and they die early deaths from liver failure. It definitely makes you look and smell bad. Just quit it already.
