Alcoholism Support Group
Alcoholism is the continued consumption of alcoholic beverages, even when it is negatively affecting your health, work, relationships and life. If you think alcohol is causing you to lose control, it's time to seek help. Our group is a safe place to vent, check in, get back up if you fall, and reach sobriety.
I am 21 days sober.
When I go to bed at night and even sometimes throughout the day, I keep having these twitches or muscle jerks. I am familiar with muscles sometimes jerking when they relax, but this feels different, almost like i get a short circuit. when i am in bed, i get one maybe every 5 mins. keeps hubby awake. lol. my whole torso will spaz if it's in my stomach or back. doesn't hurt or feel uncomfortable. just had one now.
is this normal? i really never noticed before during periods of sobriety. maybe i just wasn't paying attention.
Also, i keep getting the mother of all headaches during the night and into the morning from clenching my teeth. my entire jaw hurts in the morning. i assume it is stress/anxiety and would prefer to fix it without meds. will this pass after awhile? if so, when?
thanks.

I told you exactly what happened. I flushed the fucking pills, relapsed again, begged my doctor for more to help me out of my bender, continued to drink and ate the whole NEW bottle she gave me. I could have fucking died! WTF? Should she prescribe me more? Are you kidding me?
You are a vindictive bitch who wears a sorry-ass mask of compassion that you think gives you the fucking right to name call and ridicule. FUCK YOU. You are a mean, self righteous old lady. Mindlight's way or the highway.
Are you happy now? You feel better? YOU are the liar. Why don't you post the PM's I sent you? You got nothing. I have been kind to you when others weren't. I tried to be your friend. WTF for? I have no idea now.
"Namaste"
"you know what... i lied. i didn't flush it. it just sounded so much cooler than "i ran out". "
Why is that so very hard for you to admit? Sobriety needs rigorous honesty and you seem to have a problem with that
Best
So that YOU would shut the fuck up about me flushing the pills and making it into a calamity, I sarcastically said (in quotes) "i ran out". Over your head.
I FLUSHED THE PILLS and who cares anyway? Are you trying to help me see my flaw? Why don't find the post about when I lost control and ate a whole bottle? Huh? That oughta prove your point about meds.
Mindlight, you are acting like a bitch and I wish you would stop it. Why the hell would you bring that post up? Are you really trying to be helpful?
I sure don't think so. I think you are just being a bitch.
You owe Anna an apology. Using someone's past hurts and mistakes to try and prove your point in an argument no one can win?
Nasty, just plain nasty.
there's more going on here than someone who is concerned about a lie or vigorous honesty...what I think we are hearing is transference, a bit of obsessing about others anyone? Maybe a bit of defensiveness? anyway, we should let it go now. but i do agree that Mindlight should apologize for bringing up an old post on the board to call another member out about an old issue. She should have messaged you privately if it was really bothering her.
What she doesn't GET is that I DID NOT lie and my not speaking up on KK's thread after her was me stepping aside of an argument I did not want to involve myself in. I know I know, the maturity of that decision shocked myself. She said I could have at least thrown her a bone in the argument and was "let down" because I wouldn't do that. Whatever.
Brie is my current favorite in case you are wondering.
I did lie. I didn't really flush the rest of my cheese. Was afraid it would clog the pipes with all the pills already there.
