Ongoing weekend fear......

@rti-shm@rti

Anyone else still have the fear from the weekend?

Is there any cure? Would love a hug but I'm at work so realistically that's not going to happen

Any suggestions to kill it?

If you're not running around screaming and crying on the actual night out itself then your fear is bollocks. Get involved in a serious night out, commit crimes, break relationships, cause damage and then sit back the next day in a beautifully fuzzy blanket of insidious terror.

I scored someone I've fancied for ages one of the nights and it seems like it's a no go so that PLUS the fact that I am going out far too much and regressing maturity wise is what is fuelling my depression!!

It doesn't always have to be a 'crap why did I bawl my eyes out to a work colleague' or 'why was I pole dancing in front of everyone in coppers' sort of fear!

I also got the dreaded "Saw you at "x" friday ...bananas you were" text on sunday so that didn't help.

This bullsh1t should be illegal. Does my head in.

Oh and my fear lasted from Saturday to yesterday.

Work nights are a f*cking nightmare - Unless you have phone numbers of all the people you were out with.

Says it all really, I for one will call it a hangover

To be honest, that's a load of boll*cks and it has nothing to do with "D4"?

It's a feeling of dread, your mental state that can sometimes accompany the physical symptoms of a hangover, irrational anxiety for no real reason - And often carries on well after the physical symptoms subside.

Not everyone suffers from it.

It's like a mild DTs

Now c*ck off with "I'm a bleedin real dub with me hangovers" ....c*ck

Not one for the drama and crying etc when I'm out so it's just more a 'questioning the direction of my life' fear induced by too much alcohol consumption

What's big spoon/little spoon? The whole image only works if the spoons are roughly the same size and shape.

Besides, a Newton's cradle is so much more romantic.

The person in front is the littlespoon. The big spoon person is behind them. Usually it's the bigger person who's the big spoon, it's a huggy mindy thing

Edit: often leads to fantastic fear-banishing sex.

The older I get the worse it gets. Feeling like the worst thing in the world is about to happen. Plenty of food and don't dwell on negative thoughts. To prevent it, don't drink/drug so much.

Yea and the less drink it takes to cause it as well.

Ah my fear isn't really so specific........I drink heavy and make an eejit of myself from time to time but in this case it's more a general fear....like why am I so broke, why am I so single? blah blah blah

Been there all right, why am I so broke and why did I waste all my money on stupid alcohol, hate the cold panic for no reason you get after a heavy one. Will feel it again soon enough I am sure especially with the Euro's coming up and the first match being on Sunday at 19.45 not gonna be a good monday

But if you can handle your drink you dont need to worry about the stupid things you did at the weekend therefore no fear.

Yea but the reality is, its actually depression caused by the drink. Not a hangover. And the depression is the thing that makes people feel everything little thing is bothering them.

Nothing to do with handling your drink, or hangovers either. The hangover just adds to the depressed feeling.

Nope..... it's all about heavy drinking nothing about handling

Yes, exactly. I can go out and drink to oblivion tonight, and I will have a good hangover tomorrow. No fear though.

Do it 3 or 4 nights in a row, and along comes the fear then. Although i never call it that myself.

When you get home after work man up and do a bunch of chores. Clean that bathroom, mop that kitchen floor, get your washing up to date. I guarantee you'll feel a million times better after doing so.

It's not just a hangover tho...

It's the worse hangover you can get - you feel crap, paranoid, over thinking things that you done/said the night before,worrying about what people think of you, feeling like everyone hates you, wanting to just get up and move away and change your whole life.

It's quite a depression experience.

Your obviously not a heavy drinker :P

Mr.Biscuits

Find your neutral space. You got a rush. It'll pass. Be seated.

syklops

did you never have that feeling of doom on a Sunday evening at the thought of work in the morning? Mine's just lingering on a bit

I have that every Sunday. Whether Ive been drinking or not.

The Fear/The Horrors. Good times. Here's what you actually do. Take an over the counter pain killer and have a coffee. The two together work to kick the crap out of all that bad voodoo. Scientifically proven.
Drink water all day and take a multivitamin, a Berocca would be good. Alcohol erodes vitamin and mineral levels, things your body wants making a recovery.

Is it a hangover, if so why not just say hangover, where did all this fear stuff come from. Sounds like a load of bollocks to me

anhedonia

Yes, there is a brilliant cure, and it is Benzodiazepines.

Valiums,
Xanax,
Rivotril,

Basically you use another GABA agonist to ameliorate the alcohol withdrawal.
