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?

Best answer:

Answer by Ryan
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.

Drinking every 2 or 3 days I was not alcoholism?

Alan — Mon, 16 Aug 2010 10:47:08 +0000

issue of T Char : Drink every 2 or 3 days alcoholism is not it? I may have nine standard drinks drink every two or three days. I read about alcohol withdrawal and how they are the only ones you can die from withdrawals, and I do not want to werden.Um an alcoholic an alcoholic, you have to drink every day, right? I just want to know the clinical definition of alcoholism, not sociological. Thanks guys, but. best answer:

response from Noah
Some people consider alcoholism to be drunk at least twice a month. Others considered drunk at least twice a week (students). If you have a glass of wine or beer with dinner every night its definitely not drunk – you probably Europe! So, no, you’re an alcoholic my standards.

Why Should I Go On? I’ve Thrown Away Every Opportunity Given To Me. I Want To Die.?

Alan — Sun, 28 Feb 2010 19:43:39 +0000

I’ve gotten in trouble 4 times in my life. 3 of which have been bad luck. I am 20 years old I had so much basketball talent in high school but threw it away because i got in trouble with alcohol and kicked off the sports team by a rule which later got changed and would have had no effect on me. and when i got in trouble in high school i was with a friend and he got off scott free and now plays ball for Miami Oh. I got in to college and took out mass student loans something that i am now regretting. I got the best job ever where i got half off school a free cell phone and got to drive amazing cars and eat amazing food everyday. I got arrested at a party in college where their were over 50 people and I was the only one arrested because i was “out of control”. I didn’t get fired from my job for it and I got a ton of advice. but I continued to party and drink with my college friends because lets be honest that’s all we do. I had a girlfriend for 2 years and I broke up with her because I didn’t want to marry her and I wanted to see what else was out their. I found a few girls and then found one that I am very interested in. But before I met her i got fired from my job for forgetting a job on a weekend and lieing about it when I got back. The next quarter of college i partied my *** off and had so much fun and met this new girl. but i got arrested again and this time for some reason I ran from the cops and then gave up and got caught for alcohol once again. I was literally walking down the street with a case of beer for 2 minutes when all night my other underage friend had been carrying it and I got caught. I’ve always had the worst luck and it kills me. I’ve thrown away every opportunity given to me and I don’t understand why. I am currently on house arrest and 2 years probation for my latest offense. and I am super depressed all the time, I have all the time in the world to focus on school but i cant because all i think about is regret. i want to die but I dont think i can kill myself. I just wish i was someone else and I could find the easy way out. I wish someone could relate to me. I have always had the best opportunities and the best people around to show me the way, but for some reason I havent cared and thrown them all down the drain. BUT I DO CARE and its not just because im in trouble now, i really do care and I cant fix it now. I feel it is too late to accomplish the things i want in life and that I will never be able to get over the regret I feel. any advice from anyone. I have went to counseling on my own and it hasn’t helped at all I just seem to turn down what everyone says “be positive your still in college and your only 20″ I didnt give a rats *** about that, ive had everything and ive thrown it all away and for what? so i could party as much as all my friends who have been given all the money they have ever needed from their parents. I dont know what to do and i would like to hear if anyone has any advice or words of wisdom.

My Husband Is A “functioning” Alcoholic. He Drinks Nightly. Passes Out Almost Every Sat. Night. We Have 3 Kids

Alan — Mon, 22 Feb 2010 23:59:54 +0000

ages 17, 9 & 7 (big surprise, that one). I hid his drinking from the first, she figured it out at some point and has always disapproved since. She doesn’t drink nor do any of her friends. She’s told her father she disrespects his choices and his drinking in front of the little girls, that she hated how he acted when she was little and it disgusts her to see him like that with the other 2. He, in turn, just sort of ignores her. He is very involved (a “fun” daddy – not the homework, boring crap involvement)with the little 2. This time around as soon as they were able to notice that stupid way he starts acting when he’s had too much, I told them it was because he drank alcohol – beer, wine, whatever. And to stay away from him when he’d had too much because he just acted silly and stupid. I won’t leave him. He’ll have to be the one to leave. I make sure the girls are in counseling and he knows why, too. I’m just soo tired of my life and raising these girls seemingly alone. Any advice?
