Hi all,

I knew detoxing would be hard, but didn't think i would feel like i was dying!!! Last night i was very close to ending my life because i didn't think i could get through this process and didn't want to go back to drinking either. Thought dying would be my best option at that point, because i could imagine how i would have disappointed so many people and i couldn't face that. I had my head down the toilet for near on 32 hrs, but have finally stopped throwing up now. I am able to keep some good fluids and a little bland food down now.
I am nowhere near out of the woods yet, but hopefully now i have stopped vomiting, i can get some nutrition into my body to help me get through this living hell.

Everyone on the AA site said i should go to hospital as it is dangerous to detox on your own, but i didn't want to go and i am hoping this stubborn streak of mine is what is going to get me through this crap.

Thank you everyone for your support and i will try my best to not let you all down, or myself i suppose.

Take care all,

Luv Nouse


PS: This took me so long to type as my hands are shaking so badly, i kept making mistakes and had to do it again.

Heya,

If detoxing on your own is proving to be difficult, have you ever thought of going to a medicated detox? You can do a medicated home detox. I know of a couple in Sydney but I have no idea where you live. Medicated detoxes are all over the place so it shouldn't be too hard to find one near you. If you want to know of any near Sydney just email me (address is in my info).

You are showing great courage but if you need to be in hospital it is not weak to admit you need help.

Go Nouse!!!
