Hi all
My brother died of cancer of the throat 3 years ago mainly to his addiction to alcohol and malnutrition.
My mother is not coping at all and is now drinking much much more than she did before (my stepfather is very ill and she is trying to cope with everything at once).
I have been through a very abusive relationship with my ex husband and divorce which is still dreagging on and I have a nine yr old boy to nurture.
I have in the past 3 years started to drink too much too (prob trying to escape) and smoke too.
I am isolated and trying to do all this alone as my mum is the only one I have left and she doesn't want to know - or is finding it hard to cope herself.
I have been put on Mirtazapine for lack of sleep and anxiety but I really think my main problem at the moment is that Is that the alcohol has stopped my appetite. Therefore, I am not eating.
I have read a few posts re amino acids etc etc etc and yup I agree - the brain won't function without the right nutrients.
I have to get myself sorted out as I don't sleep at night, have panick attacks, night frights, electric shock sensations and profuse sweating where my hair is actually lung to my head.
I am terrified - absolutely terrified!!
It's hard to know how much of what is going on emotionally, spiritually in my life has a bearing on this but I think it's mainly the Alcohol and lack of nutrition that has made it's play.
Without alcohol and a good diet and additional suppliments when needed, I'm sure I would be able to cope more with all this horrible mess that I'm in emotionally.
I forget things, and where I've put them, I can't focus on anything and don't watch tv or listenm to music anymore.
One of my main problems at the moment is that I find it hard to eat or even to shop for food for myself and Matthew. I NEED TO GET MY APPETITE BACK!!
Today I went and got some Kudzo, Amino Acids, Vit b6 b1 and b3 and a b complex. Also some Glutamine, manganese and a good multivit/mineral.
There is no doublt about it - that alcohol dependancy is detrimental to our health as when I even have 1 glass I can't cope with everyday things.
It's all tied in - anxiety, Depression , stress etc.
Can anyone help me further please and yes - after 4 years of trying to get away from my abusive husband - my adrenals are probably shot to pieces too.
It's very difficult here in the UK to get certain testing done by the way.
Thank
Suze xx
