> Drank beer for years on low doses of benzos and never had a problem or got drunk it was when I stopped drinking that the problems began. Maybe should start the six pack of corona and lime again at night. Slept like a baby and felt so wonderful in the morning. Phillipa
Yes, Jan, you have mentioned the six pack many a time, but do you really want cirrhosis?In the short term you might "feel wonderful in the morning" but I doubt many people could say that 24/7 use of 6 drinks a night would be terribly healthful for them. For you, maybe it works, for most others thats a terrible sign of alcoholism.
And of course problems could start when you stopped drinking -- alcohol withdrawal sounds like a likely candidate.I'm not a teetotaler and I'm not trying to curb your alcohol habits, but that's sort of what it sounds like, withdrawals.
Anyhow, just a point
