Went into rehab on 12-12-93. When I got out , I joined a aa group, got a sponsor,and started to work the 12 steps. On 12-12-20 I will be sober 27 years. Yeah it can be done.
Nice! I wanna be sober.
@@lordnelsonmc.billionberg9166 the best thing to do is go to a rehab facility as soon as possible. Then find a aa group, get a sponsor and work the steps. Also design a program that works just for you. Also seek a higher power to help you. I am doing those things and I am looking at 27 years on 12-12-20. It is a sure thing if you work at it at 1 day at a time. Good luck.if you need more advice, send me a message.
well done
There are several ideas worth trying
Avoid stimulants including alcohol and coffee
Try to relax
Do daily exercises
Seek help from others
(I learned these and more ideas on Trevs panic fixer site )
@AJ Suli don't be embarressed.
It was either me or Marcus Arelias that wrote 'No one ever woke up sober wishing they'd got drunk the night before '
Awesome quote! (As an aside, in case anyone wants to look into Marcus Aurelius, I just wanted to give the correct spelling of his name).
@@heidih3048 Marcus Aurelius's writings known as Meditations is very powerful. Anyone reading this, do yourself a favor and read it.
Awesome great saying 👍
that was Konfuzius in the Tao of Life in the prolonged conversations with Buddha
I'm on day 6 of abstention. The past few days were stressful and physically uncomfortable. I had chest pain, body aches, slight muscle spasms, and panic attacks. I wasn't dependent on alcohol to function throughout the day but I drank quite a bit in the evenings every night. Stray strong everyone! Faith, Reading, Video, Friends, and Music are helping me get through it.
We quit the same day bro, keep going
Mix mag oxide w lemon or vinegar but only a pinch of mg oxide
I'm approaching a hundred days, I suspect the supplements I take are a big help!
Man, that anxiety that develops is beyond horrible, I even lost jobs over it. I'm 2 months sober coming from every day drinking for years. My dependency was out of control so I had to keep drinking just to get sleep and be active. There was days I just laid down drinking in bed. I'm feeling a lot better now, especially adding a supplement with multiple vitamins and especially magnesium and potassium, it helps a lot. Stay away from caffeine and it will go a little smoother. Ty for the advice, love the channel and support. Happy holidays everyone 🎉✨🫶
I've been fighting it for a while, I usually go back to it when I'm bored, I'm on day one again
life seems so much more boring without the possibility of fun night looming on the horizon
@Yep Sauce thank you, I've been doing just that, I've gotten into building model cars, exercising, and making sure my yard looks good, i'm doing great!
@Yep Sauce yea man, the first few days are the hardest imo, once you get passed that and hopefully realize you wanna be done with it, you'll do whatever it takes! i wish u the best man
@Yep Sauce Came back to say I hope you're on a good path, I'm on day 33 now!
@Yep Sauce hell yea man, this saturday is going to be 10 weeks without a drop at all for me!
Dude that anxiety and fast paced heart beat had me about to lose it, so I had someone give me a Klonopin which helped the first day. Second day I have slowly tapered. I feel so much better since I started taking supplements and electrolytes. It’s tremendously help alleviate. I didn’t realize how depleted alcohol binge drinking can do really screw you up for days. Not worth it. Never suffered this ever till recently.
Read his book
@Joshua Wilkerson good on you for admitting there is a prpblem with alcohol.
Something that sadly many never manage to admit.
be very careful with klonopin. IT's incredibly addictive.
Just drink alot of water and tough it out. What I did
I womder why electrolytes work. I've started blending frozen fruit in just water. Banana in water. Guess has potassium. What do u recommend for electrolytes? I sweat alot especially when drinking then do exercise or a physical job
42 Big Pharma stockholders disliked this video. 😆
Great job, BTW. I quit drinking 11 days ago and about three or four days into it I suffered a huge depression crash. I don’t even know why, but I decided to start putting the magnesium citrate that I had on hand back into my rotation. I was in about an hour or two I felt 1000 times better. Then I foundAnother video in your video confirming the application of magnesium in the context of severe depression, And alcohol withdrawal.
Alcohol gives me Crazy anxiety the day after I get drunk!!!!!!
Me too
Yep
Slowjamcdub gives me crazy anxiety always
Not necessarily a sign of alcoholism. But it can be the problem that leads to you drinking everyday which leads to alcoholism. The anxiety you feel after a drinking session is a rebound in the neurotransmitters in your brain. While you are drunk your brain is flooded with GABA (relaxing). In an attempt to level this out and maintain homeostasis your brain is flooded with glutimate which is a stimulating neurotransmitter. The alcohol wears off and the GABA levels drop back down to normal but your glutimate levels are still very elevated. This is what creates anxiety (or withdrawal). Source: I've been through withdrawal a few times and I'm a psychiatric nurse. I know my shit.
It is tempting to drink again to relieve these symptoms and that is where the problem starts
I’m trying to quit again today. Wish me luck people. Always strong willed in the morning but in only a few hours I BREAK
Matt B get Scott’s book Drinking Sucks. It will really help. You need biochemical repair.
Matt B ....just thinking about ya Matt and including you in prayer. Be well - hang on!!
Hows it going?
I get what you're saying. I made it to a fortnight.
Valium is a must for the first 4 days. And for anxiety. To really stop, you must have no excuses.
I ended with shaking later in the day, so I trick myself with one glass to stop the withdrawal symptoms. No good.
I bought magnesium.
I use valium to stop a seizure and anxiety.
Meditation in morning is crucial.
Eat a good Mal after that.
Think about what you wanna do in Life .
Than gradual make Sport and watch some TH-cam. In the evening watch a movie and drink a can of tea.
One of the best videos I have seen on the topic. Well done. Thank-You!
I’m literally sitting here taking hand written notes. Thank you for this you have more than likely helped saved my life
Love you babe , niacin try it it felt like an ease instantly
Day 2 moderate to severe and going through the worst of it, on benzo and zolpidem just to be safe. Just like you did, watching these videos and taking detailed handwritten notes. The bad thing is that I relapsed after 1 year of sober, and I have no idea how I could have let it happen. I have been using a lot of stuff, but shit happens, unfortunately. I hope I will get it right this time. God speed to you too!
Massive reduction for me when took a bunch of the supplements. Simply lost interest.
Thank you for this. I can tell you've done A LOT of research. I appreciate you doing it so I don't have to! This video was VERY informative and straight forward. Thank you for sharing so much info in a short time. I'm so relieved I can get started on some of these ASAP, & WHILE I'm waiting for an evaluation... and maybe a prescription...whatever it takes. Previously sugar craving were out-a-hand. So glad for the help.
Thank you Chris! Your method works. Wish they would apply this in treatment.
Thanks for this information. It's greatly appreciated.
Thank you this is the best video I've seen yet.
When I tried to stop drinking in the past, i got anxious so badly I had to drink to avoid the shakes.
Taking the supplements really helped this time.
Washington Consultants get his book Drinking Sucks. To really help with the nutritional part and supplements. Good luck
I appreciate the information, very helpful!
Older video yes, but still full of Great Advice. Thank you Sir 😊
In my younger days I was a serious thrill seeker. I was a bull rider, bareback bronc rider in rodeos. Hard working and playing man. My physical pain is my “trigger” (hate that word). I’m looking for natural pain and anti inflammatory relief. Thank you for your posts.
Great & informative video!!!!!!
Thanks alot....
Good info...I take most of the supplements you mentioned 👍🏾
You're. Brilliant. Thank you.
Thanks for sharing this. Great info, great format, and none of the fluff or lecturing I’ve encountered in other videos today. I’ve been an alcoholic for 6 years and on and off benzos about as long, but this is the first day I decided to check out TH-cam in search of a bit of motivation. Not only is this motivational, it is super informative and I have half these supplements sitting around my house. Thanks again 👍🏻
Yeah and then the benzo withdrawl is a new special hell and Addiction
They literally destroy your brain.
I take L-theanine & magnesium
Glad you enjoyed it Kirsten!
Awesome video thank you so much

Briliant advices! Thank you
Thanks for all your info..
I ended up having a big seizure when I stopped. I had all the symptoms, hallucinations, heart all over the place, dizziness, insomnia and all of the horror stories you here. I pissed and shit myself. My friend took me to the hospital as she was so concerned with the state I was in, then as I waited on the gurney the darkness came over me and I had the seizure. Woke up in the scanner whilst they were checking my brain. I actually had two seizures one after another. I felt so awful. Three days in hospital and they sent me home. I could barely walk, dizzy and just felt like I'd been hit by a truck. It took me at least three months before I was feeling something near normal. They had me on all sorts of vitamins, drip fed in hospital then meds for when I left which I took for ages, til my body recovered. That was four years ago and I've not had a drink since. It was like walking through hell when I was in the midst of drinking. I was getting through a litre and half of spirits a day and whatever else I could get down me. Alcohol is so dangerous and so bad for you. How its still legal is beyond me. I feel for anyone going through it. You can beat it. Just go to the doctor and tell them what is going on and do a controlled medical withdrawal. Alcohol is the worse substance to get off. Get help from professionals. Good luck. Coming out the other side is like being reborn. You'll wonder what on earth it was all about. Horrible life destroying shit. There is a way out if your in the grip of it. You can be free of it. And you can have your life back. Start appreciating being sobre and all the wonder that it brings.
thanks man! I'm not gonna die like this 😤
Vividly remember the nightmare of severe hangover/withdrawal the first few days after binge drinking. I didn't even feel alive, and the anxiety from brain chemicals being messed up was literal hell. Heart rate stays high the first couple of days, with the first day being the worst by far. The extreme tiredness and dehydration just makes the anxiety worse. I had a lot of confusion when withdrawing from chronic alcohol use, and those DTs can be very dangerous. I thought I was going to die all day long the first day after coming to.
Lots of good info-
Here's a couple things that also have helped me alot. Nutritional yeast 1-2 tablespoons a day. And liquid skullcap; its lowers blood pressure and will cut back the anxiety as well. Spirulina is also good to get the vitimans back in ya naturally. Phospytiatl choline complex will reverse a fatty liver.
I'm going threw this right now, thank you so much
Thank you 👍
Very good information.
Major props to Rick who was the guy who got me started on the use of supplements in recovery to the point where I am now branching out on my own in the hope of helping a few last gasp cases similar to myself. His use of amino acids made a strong impression on me but I would add two points. DLPA is a quasi-racemic version of L Phenylalanine. Straight L-Phenylalanine is an L-Tyrosine and L Dopa precursor but seems to have a more relaxed "joyous" effect than either DLPA or Tyrosine. L-Tryptophan is a serotonin precursor and L-Phenylalanine and L-Tyrosine are dopa precursors. It is important to keep the serotonin (happy) and dopa (pleasure) systems in balance.
This is the first time I've heard about Passion flower, will try. My mum used to drink valerian tea before going to bed; it worked wonderfully and in fact is the prototype of the 1st benso, Valium. One thing to avoid is valerian drops which are usually in an alcohol suspension - no go there. This is a great list. (I get my Epsom salts in mega bags in Canada, so the cost for me is luckily not prohibitive, and also helps with sciatica.)
Valerian smells so bad, I could never drink the tea. Works great for insomnia though.
I'm looking for anything that can give me an edge over this horrible disease. Thank you!
Try his course
Fantastic! This had to be the most informative video I've seen in some time. This guy knows what he's talking about and gets around all the BS out there. I've even read the books he mentioned. I'm surprised he didn't mention Milk Thisal however. But maybe that was off topic at least for the reduction of anxiety from alcohol addiction.
Yes the herb milk thistle will deeply repair the liver from all kinds of toxins. Research & see that it's an amazing miracle even for moderate to severe liver damage. My renewed liver - after a 45 year history of Heavy alcohol abuse - my doctor said keep doing what ever your doing. Been sober 8 years now. And I want to add that this video is a treasure for us to have available. I spent nearly my whole life researching what's mostly in here. There's more to find out, but there AWAYS IS!!
This video was GOD SENT!! Thank you for this!!!!
✨ Informative. ✨ Thank you. ✨
five days mj maintenance, pulled out the driveway to go to the gym, didnt physically feel like working out at the time. thought about im 50 and no kids and no woman, then instantly thought of getting drunk, and did after driving for a while. if i went to the gym it might have given me time to think all that out. next time. Ive learned from consciously being aware of this trigger.
Great list of supplements BUT it never gets discussed anywhere what to take AND WHEN. A supplement schedule would be much appreciated. Thank you for the work you do.
Each time i stopped drinking the doctor prescribed me antidepressants, antiphychotics and tranquilizers. What i really needed was the supplements mentioned above. And of course AA meetings.
Thanks 😊
Milk and eating in the morning for withdrawal, and pickle and hot pepper juice for hangovers.
Thanks.
Im currently in my 3rd month sober, this is the best info that explains some issues. Now if i could get the "limb tingling & head ringing" to stop. I fear its "alcoholic neuropathy" , my Dr. appears clueless.... frustrating. Ty for this video 👍
110 days sober after a serious bout with end stage alcoholism. I too am still dealing with that neuropathy although it is much better. I take so many supplements it is hard to pinpoint but it seems like methyl B12 1000 mcgs., methyl Folate and Sulbutiamine (a very bioavailable form of B1 developed in Japan - most alcoholics have pretty severe B1 deficiencies, it's what causes the syndrome commonly known as "wet brain") - 100 mgs. really help with the neuropathy and an overall feeling of clear headed well being. I don't care whether my doctor agrees with me or not but in this case he absolutely does.
You 3months off, how's your anxiety symptoms? Are you better?
Yeah i had tingling all over my body not just my limbs its been like that for a while now but i had troubles on staying away with alcohol i had relapsed so much but maybe thats why i have bad anxiety and have body tingling sometimes i am 3 weeks sober again now and i feel little better but i get anxious still and have body tingles out of nowhere but hope your doing well we can all do this
@@OriginalLHB i can vouch for the b vitamins helping with ''wet brain'', we studied it
in nutritional med.
What all yall experiencing is post acute withdrawal a.k.a. healing symptoms, some youget anxious then it goes away it lasts a few months
I also swear by Valerian. I use it for so many things and have never felt any withdrawal or addiction. I quit drinking recently, had all the major symptoms and valerian, sleepytime and Kava tea got me through.
I'm sorry to say though when someone is experiencing full-on alcohol withdrawal none of those things you mentioned will help at all.
Kava is awesome
After two day, i even can't go to cafe and drink expressão from small ceramic cup. When i saw that cup and my hand start shaking.
been a severe binge drinker and gone through withdrawels many times. with out without medical supervision. i gotta say even though i HATE benzo's, they do help ALOT, you can sleep and are calm two things that are near impossible if you go through this alone. besides the obvious, vitamins minerals and get as much food in as possible, i honestly would recommend taking some benzos if available to you. ( severe cases only )
I got benzo’s for anxiety from doc. 3/4 year later, the withdrawal was absolutly horrible. Avoid benzo’s if you can
Thats sound advice. Just ask for Ativan or Libriuem for a 5-7 day period. You cant get hooked on them that way. Biggest thing for me after detox was family environment stress which cause triggers and cravings and eventually i relasped and had to get on a benzo regimen again. Benzos are a life saver if trying to taper off from alcohol withdrawal.
Valerian root has a cumulative effect. Also, I find Yogi tea Kava helps me. I'd go with pure Kava but not sure how badly it damages liver. Many people swear by it.
Awesome video! I've even used everything you talked about in the video over the years for alcohol withdrawal anxiety, benzo withdrawal anxiety, and opiate withdrawal anxiety, and even just generalized or social anxiety. The first time I came off alcohol after a really bad dependence I could barely sleep and I had so much tension and anxiety. My mom's friend who is an acupuncturist told me to take 500 mg to even 1,000 mg of magnesium at night with dinner for the first week or longer. Literally, from the very first dose I took, I slept a full 8 hours and woke up with much less anxiety. I love everything you taught about and have experiences with them as well, but magnesium was my first alcohol withdrawal remedy that I ever tried and I loved how fast it worked.
Great info!!! Looking forward to watching more videos you come out with. You really know this subject well!
Thanks Matthew!
Thanks for the magnesium info :)
As far as CBD I buy Hemplucid - 1500mg. 150.00 a pop for 1 oz. Comes in tincture form, but also water soluble. I vap on the stuff and to me last longer. Works like a charm.
Damn! I read like 5 comments on this. I was a HUGE ALCOHOLIC.....a liter or more of cheap disgusting vodka a day. I see on here ppl talking about "their 3rd day" with no alcohol. If I was on my 3rd day back when I was heavy drinking....on the 3rd day I'd NEVER be able to type a response because the shakes were too intense. I had to have ppl light my own cigt because I shook too much to light it myself. If someone is in major withdrawal symptoms you're NOT gonna type a huge response. PERIOD. I almost died from alcohol withdrawal LITERALLY. The hallucinating and not knowing if you're actually hallucinating or if its REAL is REAL alcoholism. I just cant with reading these messages. Apparently MOST ppl dont know what its like to go thru str8 up horrific withdrawal symptoms. This really irritates me. Oh I've been 4 days without alcohol and I shake a little bit. That means you ARENT a severe alcoholic. Seizures, hallucinations, psychotic break, mental break, ALMOST DYING....THATS ALCOHOLISM!!!!!! 🤬🤬🤬
Coffee makes my sugar drop insanely and I feel awful. I am going to try 5-htp and L-Glutamine. I truly hope it helps with hypoglycemia, my digestive issues. I also have insane belching? Any tips on that? Thank you 🙏
My use progressed until I just couldnt even get drunk anymore, no matter how much I would drink. It wasnt being hung over the next day but rather major alcohol withdrawal, which was much worse and that is very scary. It really is an underrated and terrible drug. That is what brought me here...Seeking that positive change and making it last. Thanks for posting these videos!
D Mp try reading Chris Scott’s book. Drinking sucks. Good luck
yeah, gaba is an amino acid. gaba dampens spikes in the electrical system.
i guess im lucky enough to be able to stick to drinking once every 3 sometimes 4 days, i binge drink and
sometimes have anxiety especially if my sleep is poor. I now take magnesium and a few other things,
tried valium and temaz. they work but i end up abusing them and using as an alcohol substitute. This video
is really good he is right about the magnesium and herbal supps, they do relax you but without the euphoria
of alcohol or benzos. If it helps get people off alcohol then brilliant !!!
Serotonin is largely produced in the gut so don't forget to take supplements and foods that are beneficial for it. ACV (with mother), leafy green veggies, sweet potato, licorice root extract etc
I order a 25kg sack of epsom salt from Amazon, it costs £30. I use 1kg in the bath, so it is much cheaper to buy it in bulk like this.
I read that magnesium oxide still is bioavailable, just not as much so just take more. It’s not useless.
When I was in my 20's I would swim in the ocean, ride my bike, play tennis, ride my horse, swim again, all in one day. Had no idea I had GAD then. Now I realize I was self medicating the healthy way.
Valerian is iffy. It can cause withdrawals similar to benzos when taken over long periods. Of course occasional use I've read is perfectly fine
I prefer to take valerian mixed in with passionflower. By itself, it can be too strong for me.
I have mixed thoughts on Phenibut, I hear it's addictive and some people have bad side effects with it.
Last short comment on yoga as active meditation; in its current form Hatha yoga is only about 100 yrs old; injuries can occur, but definitely good idea -- I have always been drawn to endurance activity; I would say for me that the blue factor when swimming lengths in the pool has a meditative quality and for older individuals like myself is a low impact activity which affects the whole body, core muscles etc.; at the same time some weight-bearing exercise is crucial for bone health and balance -- i'm trying to arrange a detox, got through most of this day without alcohol, one drink and I'm motor mouth again. Your work is deeply appreciated and definitely time for me to be quiet.
Dandelion root simmered 20 minutes in water for tea..
Does anyone else relate it to the “the sky is falling?” I can’t stand that feeling. For myself when I get that anxiety, I just remind myself that the sky didn’t fall the day before, or the day before that. Why should it start meow… it actually works😉
I strictly drink alcohol as a sleep aid, don’t need it in the slightest for anything other than to get me to sleep faster, I don’t drink during the day nor do I even think about it. I can go out to eat without drinking go to work or really anything however for the last 8-9 months I drink burbon before I go to sleep so I’m wondering if I quit cold turkey am I at risk for crazy withdrawals...I can go 24 hours without it for sure and not even think about it but haven’t gone much longer than that in a very long time.
Passionflower becomes less effective when taken daily, in my experience (and others' anecdotes which I have read).
I’m currently in my first foray into post-acute alcohol withdrawal. Almost picked up beer last night (had that strong dopamine expectation urge), but I’m keeping L-Glutamine in the car to kill the craving. It’s strong enough to curb the craving until I’m past my gas station trigger and finally home. I had some insomnia and shakes during sleep last night (first time I’ve ever experienced full body shakes), so I’m getting a feel for how hard these withdrawal symptoms are going to be for me after 2 decades of regular twice/thrice weekly late night beer drinking. I have some Phenibut coming in the mail, and am trying Bacopa Monnieri currently along with green tea and magnesium citrate to reduce the anxiety. I’m only two days from my last drink, and if I have to taper with alcohol until the Phenibut comes in to replace it, so be it. I going to try to struggle a little by starting with small doses (
I feel you man I'm about to go through a divorce myself because of it it's really hard when you get those cravings so bad
Look into ashwaganda as well. Good for anxiety and depression
how did it go?
My anxiety was so bad I walked out of a job interview and couldn't pay for my groceries because of full body shakes/panic attack.
Thanks for all this. Is the idea you try each in turn or that you buy all and try at the same time?
He does have biorebalance restore that has all of them and more. Start with a half scoop
And with food!
You should also consider turmeric supplements
4days off it .... This time trying to go for good .... Good luck everyone!
Consider his online course
When I drink i have a few pickels before bed. Pretty helpful
Great video! I gave up alcohol months ago but still have quite bad anxiety.
Anxiety is the worse..what do u do??
You can win. I know Scott has other videos that address anxiety. Camomile tea extra strong at bedtime. He has a book. Drinking Sucks you might read
Rockhaye, how are you doing 1 yr later?
@@aphysique I haven't had a drink for 2 years and 2 months. :-)
Try Goat's milk , works wonders.....
Was on the supplements i could get from the supermarkets and chemists near me. Massive reduction in volume due to lose of interest in drinking. I have no idea why I didnt maintain the supplements. Too lazy to open 8 pill bottles a morning, purchase what ran out
Phenibut is only prescription in US now (((( what can it be replaced with? Thank you!
Glicynate magnesium is ok?
I recently went on a crazy binge on quit cold turkey because I looked like shit on there were no groceries in the house. I took a shit load of vitamins B, magnesium etc. Also liters of green tea with fresh lemon. I also took a lot of Spirulina which is supposed to help with detoxification of the liver. Although I didn’t sleep for shit I felt quite relaxed. So I think my organs were recovering rapidly, but quitting cold turkey was not a good idea. I started hearing music coming out the wall, that was not even that unpleasant, but a bit frightening. Then I met a devil lady. Shouting and laughing at me repetitively. Non-stop. I tell you, I’m lucky to have walked out of it alive. Also to die while in the scariest experience of my life would not have been nice. Alcohol is fucking toxic, and a bad withdrawal will show you hardhandedly how bad it really is. If you are concerned, go to a doctor. Diazepam will help you sleep and this shit goes away a lot faster. Stay strong.
Bro the Devil Lady might not be your mind playing tricks on you. Demons are real and I've had many experiences with them. My wife doesn't drink. Not only have I seen these demons, but my completely sober wife has too. One night a demon of lust with no eyes and bloody teeth met my wife while she was in bed. At the same time I was in another part of the house just beginning to have these uncontrollable desire to watch porn. My wife sees this demon walk through the wall and come to me. It said that I belong to it and was laughing at my wife when she said that I belong to her. Alcohol and drugs can sometime bring your consciousness to a certain place where you tap into the spiritual real. So don't ignore the experience. You need Jesus bro. In His Name demons flee. And You'll find mercy in God's presence through Christ.
Clayton Menezes
Thanks for your message, but I don’t believe my auditory hallucinations were demons. I know it was my own repetitve thinking. A psychiatrist also explained to me happens to your brain on withdrawal. So my experience was not demonic, but I can’t judge your experience. The porn thing choked me up though, my bad😜
Tactics-MNK god bless you.
Your very strong.god bless you.
It's called d.t's I've been there
I go through through 500mls of vodka a day on a good day. I also am a former and occasional heroin user . wouldn't wish alcohol on the worst heroin addict ever. I'm planning on going to a detox very soon but I'm very scared because I go through 4mgs of Xanax a day as well :/
all the substances will be taken into account especially the xanax, if it is a well planned recovery
they will wean you off the xanax and it will be tolerable. youl be a new man, positive thoughts
Question,,, could you suggest how to get all these supplements into body? I want to take so many but digestive system is sensitive. Thanks. God bless
Mary he has a supplement bio rebalance. It’s expensive and for woman taking about half a dose might be better for your stomach
I wonder if Phenibut works well with a benzo beer habit.
What is your opinion of 5-HTP?
How long the anxiety last??? Iam sober for close to 4 months but the anxiety is giving me a hard time
Where can we buy citrate from and taurate ?
You'd be so awesome on Joe Rogans podcast 👌👍🤞
or Rich Roll's.
Yes!!
You mentioned that DLPA may be stimulating. Stimulating how exactly? Serious question. A loved one has given up alcohol recently, and is experiencing moments of melancholy, so I'm trying to find something that will help this. He is taking milk thistle, a B vitamin complex, and also magnesium citrate. He said he can really feel a difference when he takes the magnesium. Thank you so much for taking the time in not only researching this information, but also sharing it with us.
ExcelsiorElectric if you don’t mind me asking how much milk thistle and how much magnesium are they taking per day? I’m trying to help a loved one stop drinking and he and I are both concerned about withdrawals. I’m trying to get all the supplements ready before he begins.
Dlpa is a combo of the d and l isomers of phenylalanine. This compound is an essential amino acid specifically in the synthesis of dopamine. Its conversion chain is as follows. Phenylalanine --> Tyrosine --> L-Dopa --> Dopamine.
Dlpa gave me severe stomach pain. L-tyrosine did not.
I relapsed just recently. Sober for 3 years then i snapped when me and my wife had a fight. I am now currently in my 5th day of withdrawal. Nausea, dizziness and numbness in the face arms and legs still persistent. Any advice? Thank you in advance.
Read about the supplements and read his other bloga
Anything for the shakes
Heard some of the supplements are not so good. How can you say your an expert.
i recommend taurine
Helped me alot, and gingko biloba too
I always wonder how long you have to take those "soft" supplements that they show a real effect; when you make your online research it is often stated you have to take them at least for 4 weeks (e.g. Magnesium, Baldrian....)........the other thing: it is said that Alcohol destroys your gut in a way, that nutrions can not be absorped at all, how does this effect these supplements, do I have a certain amount of time be sober so that the gut could recover his ability to absorp nutrions at all?
Hey all: purchased online what was labeled as "Magnesium Citrate," yet back section now says "in the form of oxide, citrate, succinate, chelate..." Still semi-useful? Not really?
Seems misleading, that should've been marked as a Mag complex, since it isn't 100% Mag Citrate. Semi useful if the more bio avail forms of Mag are higher % than oxide.
Hi. I've been watching your videos for a long minute. I'm a recovering alcoholic. I majored in biology. Doesn't make it any easier to deal with it right? I've tried everything. I even have a social worker going out of her way to help me, a therapist who's probably 15 years younger than I am, and yes...a psychiatrist. Please help me. Please.
You are right drinking really sucks I'm about to get a divorce because of it and the thing is I don't want to do the things that I do but the cravings are so intense after not drinking for like two days and then I binge drink I know what you're feeling
I've lost so many jobs because of drinking
Makes commitment and follow his course. Balance your brain as it is the core of the problem. You need to develop new neuropathways. Not easy but many have done it. Glad you have a support group
are these supplements good for anxiety in general or only withdrawal anxiety?
Good for both. Do some research and see what may work for you. Make sure to drink chamomile tea instead of coffee or regular tea.
Problem with these is that many of them hurt your liver as a side effect. So if your liver is already compromised....
If bloating cis aused by water. And if I drink to much and it drains water. Why am I still bloated?
I wanna stop drinking but it's so hard
Same here
Any idea on dosages of these supplements? I'll take all of them if it helps.
Any sucess on any of these supplements??
Markus Orth it all completely depends on the person (body weight, tolerance, with/without food, etc). Just have to experiment and do your research.
I was eating and drinking Valirine in copious amounts before it actually done anything for me. I was drinking a liter of whiskey a day and have ended up in Hospital multiple times because I was in withdrawal and vomiting blood.
I was prescribed Valium for my heavy addition. It was one I’ll every 4 hours til I tapered off, I wouldn’t have taken it if I knew the suicidal thoughts that follow
I wish I could. I suffer with very bad depression and anxiety and the alcohol calms me down but at a cost. If i don't drink, then I more likely to want to cut or burn myself plus I have attempted suicide on occasion, the last time I was cut from a tree while unconscious. It's a hard choice as I don't want to hurt the family " through drink " but also don't want the family to receive a phone call saying a body has been found.
I hope your doing ok...god bless you
Listening to this in bits and pieces; Big Pharma promoted SSRIs as not addictive, as opposed to the cross addiction of the housebound woman in the early '60s swigging booze and taking valium. My sis has been sober for 33 yrs and she was prescribed an SSRI on which she is dependent, no matter how many generations these drugs go through, she can't get past that last small dose without catastrophic consequences. So if at all possible, unless clinical depression is clearly involved, avoid it; does little or nothing to relieve anxiety. The only comment I have about these beneficial alternative approaches to anxiety relief is that the content is not FDA regulated. Melatonin is important in initiating sleep but supplementing with it is to my mind dangerous; less is definitely more and there is no way to properly ascertain how much you're taking just by picking up a supplement from a health food store.
