Texas | Thanks for all the comments, yes the seeing things not there is real . I actually think I heard things too , I had what I thought was odd . It felt like bugs were on me .
Those night sweats are really enjoyable too .
Waking up soaked and freezing . The night sweats and not sleeping lasted long after I got out of the hospital . Doc and the nurse told me what to expect they were half right it’s about 3x as bad as they said it would be .
I probably did not eat anything for 3 days . I was in
Hospital for 5 days .
I do remember they wanted to keep me a couple more days to be sure . Had the shakes pretty bad when I left .
I asked Doc if I was out of the danger zone , he said yes but you might be uncomfortable. lol that’s a damn understatement.
They sent me home a bunch of meds from hospital pharmacy . I took one and thought .Well they told me I’m not going to die . Went on with zero .
I remember coming home and getting right on a tractor , then fixing fences. It was miserable I sweated a lot
That’s how I arrived at the gallon of water a day . I thought as much as I’m
Losing I better put some back .
Some people don’t like straight water , I have been drinking it so long now it’s just a norm for me .
I was concerned to drive my pickup on the road when I first got back home. I was on a lot of drugs . Most of them I’d never heard of . About 5 pills 3 times a day , so about 15 pills a day .
My councilor wants me to go to AA , nothing bad to say about it , just don’t think it’s for me . She says i have e story to tell . I’m just a fellow that was drunk and got sober . Not a very interesting story .
I don’t make excuses why I was a drunk , no one’s fault I just was , damn beer won’t jump up and pour it’s self in your mouth .
I think it helps a lot staying busy , between firefighting , Mason , ranch and a bunch of other stuff I am not bored .
I’ll find a way to help other drunks , I fully believe the opportunity will present its self , it already has .
Want to do more .ill see how it all plays out .
Thanks everyone. | |
