... Hi, i’m a European running an office in India. Living and working in India was always my dream. I’m not a very social person and it’s also very difficult (for most foreigners) to get real friendship with the local people because of cultural differences. So most of the time i’m alone. ... ... As long as i’m busy in office, I don’t have any problem. But in evenings when i’m alone, the thinking starts. I’m very much a thinker. And small problems become big. So to stop the thinking, i often take some drinks. Let’s say 3-4 drinks, 4-5 days a week. ... ... I know that drinking is not good and i also not ...

I agree. I need to quit drinking but do not agree with AA. I dont like the concept of admitting you are powerless. I believe with willpower and focus we can achieve anything.

The best first step to recovery is admitting you have a problem and accepting you need treatment. I would suggest finding a local treatment centre and checking yourself in for an assessment. Alternatively, you can go online and find your local AA or other alcohol recovery group. Either way, it is time to ask for help. Also you may not want to hear this, but getting your family involved could be a wise move. If they do not know what you are going through, they can not be there to support you.

I have been struggling with alcoholism for 15 years. I drink pretty much every day, and I drink a lot (usually beer, at least 6 per night). I am a 5’2” female, so I think I drink a ton with respect to my size. I desperately want to quit drinking, and I am trying everything. I have done some research, and I believe that my poor body is probably seething with candida due to my drinking, and other bad habits that come with my drinking (eating crappy foods, smoking, not enough sleep, etc). I want to treat my candidiasis on this go-around of attempted sobriety (sober less than 24 hours). ...

http://curezone.org/upload/_A_Forums/Ask_Moreless/tn-Isis_2.jpg ... I believe most alcoholics will find upon investigation a candida situation, as I did. Right now you need to focus on one thing at a time. Google ” Why alcoholics drink ” and see about a diet change that will slowly help curb your crave. An A.A. meeting with eyeball to eyeball support would benefit these early days. Diet is key, candida or no-alcohol or no. One 24 hours will get you two. Hang in and hang on - sobriety is worth it, our natural state, and can be returned to. Everything has a solution. ... ... seek2clean ... ...

I know that many people have been helped by AA at the initial stage of breaking off the addiction. If you drink from morning to evening and are at risk for DTs, better do that in a medical setting. After the initial break away from alcohol, you will need to work on maintaining sobriety and this is were you could use a stay at a Retreat center. Check this website www.rawdetox.org. You should stay there for a month. You will have the opportunity to learn a new lifestyle and leave the old behind. You will be detoxified from all the metabolites of alcohol that make you crave alcohol and ...

http://curezone.org/upload/_A_Forums/Ask_Moreless/tn-Isis_2.jpg ... I would have loved a month away, and to work with a healing protocal right away, but since it was not possible I did a meeting or 3 every day - detoxing would have been easier for me with trained assistance for sure. I am coming from several years of sobriety and surely wish I had known of a forum like this when I put the bottle down. Only recently (2+ years) have health issues caused me to roll the camera back and connect the candida/sugar/alcohol dots. Granted - a BIG book and fellow sufferers is not enough for some of us. ...

Hi, ... I had similar symptoms you described. For a while i thought that dealing with the candida would fix everything, but it didn’t. ... ... I found out i’ve got too much heavy metal in my body, and from what i’ve been reading, it looks like the metal poisoning is the source of the candida, and maybe even the source of the alcoholism. ... ... It sounds like you’ve been drinking & smoking for a long time. When alcohol & smoking are done together, your body has had the opportunity to accumulate a lot of metal, since the alcohol knocks down your liver function, allowing you to absorb more metals from th ...

I’ve been meaning to post this message for quite a while, but haven’t quite gotten around to it until now, after someone here asked me about using kudzu to stop drinking. About the kudzu question: I did use it for a while, when I was motivated to quit, but was never quite sure of its effectiveness, since I was taking a lot of things at the same time. Actually if there was any substance that helped reduce my alcohol cravings, it was through boosting my serotonin by taking 5’HTP with cal/mag/zinc and B-vitamins (5’htp usage has been well-described on the curezone depression forum, although I ...

Here’s an update: a friend of mine died from alcohol, and i found out about it 4 months ago. I’ve been sober since then -- 4 months now. These days i’ve got plenty of nicotene and coffee handy, and that’s just fine. I still use the electrolyte supplementation that i described above, and all of this seems to be enough to keep me sober. ... ... It’s funny, because i’d tried for years to quit boozing, but what really made the difference this time is that i know about the asperger genetics going on, and the codependency that resulted from nobody knowing how to deal with or even identify this geneti ...

Is there any way to get medication for depression without going through explaining what happened to a doctor. I am turning into an alcoholic. I don’t understand how because I never drank really at all before. I find myself drinking everyday. As much as I try to stop myself I can’t because it is the only way I can mentally deal with my issues. I don’t want to be here anymore............. [End]

Thank you so much for your words of encouragement. It actually is making me cry that someone who doesn’t even know me or my situation would care enough to take time and help me get through it a little better. I honestly would never have thought of myself in this situation. I am well educated and just never was a party girl. I just want to get back to normal. That’s all I want. I am going to try your suggestions and I will pray that it works. Its been so long since I was attacked so how long does this feeling last.
