Hi
I tend to binge drink, something which I am trying to stop at the minute. However, I drink to take away the anxiety but I always drink far too much and the next day I feel like I am going to die. I feel ok til the alcohol has gone from my system then I start to feel dizzy and extremely ill.. I seem to have an hour as well where I go really lightheaded, sweating hot and cold, my legs ache and my muscles shake but my heart rate does not rise I dont get butterflies or overbreathing - the things I would normally associate with a panic attack. The fear I feel though is absolutely awful I am literally riveted to the bed just waiting for something to happen and I will die. Im laid there thinking over and over im ok im ok and thinking how I wouldnt be able to tell my mum I love her before I died and how ashamed of me she would be if I died because I drank too much. I dont understand it, Ive had my liver and everything checked and Im fine and my other friends will have the same amount to drink as me but they will be up and at work and fell fine. Has anyone else ever had this type of thing?
