My head is spinning right now from Saturday night out - and I'm filled with the typical dread. Unable to concentrate, sad, and physically ill. I'm worried I may have done liver or brain damage this time which will not subside. Is this going to go away?
What is the prognosis for someone with this addiction pattern? Is it likely I am depleted of vitamin B or other essentials? I eat regularly, lots of grains, and take fish oil and a vitamin supplement daily. Last week I was all right, but I really over did on Saturday night and can't focus at all right now. Want to go to bed, etc.
I am making it to work, but I feel like a vegetable and I have a horrid image of at any minute having a stroke or worse.
If I can kick this -- am I ever going to get better? Is there anything I can take to ignite this process?
Help.
