ths to all of you who replyed abt' my alcohol posisoning. the reason i had asked this, was I had been having trouble sleeping and stared drinking, just to get some sleep. I then begin to do it more often then i should and I was wakeing up feeling very sick.like I had the flu.I guess i just drank too much.I must say it work for the sleeping,but not the nx day.i Guess thats what u would call a hang over. I learned alot I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE A FEW DRINKS FOR SLEEPING BUT i THINK I ENJOYED IT A LITTLE TO MUCH. NOW I'M SCARED,TO.

You may think that you're sleeping better when you drink, but you're really not. You don't sleep soundly & the more you drink to help you sleep, the more you'll see that you're waking up tired & will feel that way the remainder of the day. I wouldn't recommend that you continue to use alcohol as a sleep aid, especially if you believe you enjoyed it a little too much.

i have empathy for your "rubic's cube"........i convince myself that a few drinks will relax me enough to fall asleep.......the problem lies within itself......there is no such thing as "a few drinks".......

believe me, i do enjoy it....but the alarm clock reminds me that life goes on with or without us.

fear is a survival instinct........the secret is to not to fear yourself. be leery lol..........surround yourself with those who you trust and love.........anchors :)
