I drink at night, its when I need release and to self medicate....

Started TSM tonight.... Got home at 8:10, tool a NAL (I had planned to take it earlier but forgot), so I waited till 9:15 before pouring a drink.

I generally drink 3 to 4 tumblers a night of KY bourbon. 8-12 shots.

I drank one, slower than normal.

Refilled, half way through got horribly sick to my stomach, likely unrelated, but I did, shaking, blurry eyes, dry heaves, etc. Not as bad as antabuse (or at least as I understand that, I have no personal experience).

Much less effect from alcohol than usual, but I still have a slight buzz and its helping me forget my situation I need to self medicate for.

My biggest fear is facing my underlying issues. I am going to bed.

Welcome! The early days can be rough....I had nausea etc. as well. The good news is that you immediately experienced the positive results. How is it going now?
Best wishes,
Tweed
