I was shouted at today by some mates asking me to join them in the pub for a drink (juice 4 me as no longer drink) and game of pool.:D

But talked myself out off it my mouth started to dry up and i started to worrying what if i start to feel hot,dizzy,lightheaded and then a full blown panic attack:weep:

Should i have at least tired and failed and told myself "i told you so".

Well, if you want my two pennyworth, it's always worth trying - as you might well succeed. Even if you only managed a short while in the pub, that would be a great step forward, so think about giving it a try next time.

I think next time I will take them up on the offer and see what happens.:winks:

I hear were you are coming fro Ellis81 the last time i had a few drinks at the pub and a mean 3 drinks (newcastle brown) the next day i was in a&e for 8 hours with what they thought was a heart attack (but all the tests were fine) but we think was 2 massive panic attacks. Has made me teatotal. But i then went in for a juice and game of pool about a month after that but had to leave as it took its toll on me,I was sweatin, dizzy,could just about feel my hands, felt like everyone was lookin at me just about made it home a 20 mins walk lasted about 1 hour it felt.:bighug1:
