Good for your.

There are several mild to severe side effects associated with alcohol detox including psychological and physical effects. One such side effect is alcohol withdrawal itching.

Ignore that article suggesting medical treatment, you can bear through it without pharmakikes.

I never had the itches, but my stomach was royally fucked up from not drinking. I didn’t discuss it with a doctor or anything, I kind of figured it out on my own.

The conclusion I came to was that consistent drinking had caused the organisms in my gut (the gut microbes/flora) to be a certain way or at a certain proportion.

I got some probiotics and within a day that shit started fixing itself. In two days all was normal. This was after a week or two of fuckery in my gut after stopping cold turkey.

The other thing I noticed was that random pains throughout my body went away. Before I stopped drinking, I thought the pains were just me getting old. Nope. It was the drinking.

I stopped completely for probably nine months. Now I drink a little every now and then, but nothing like I used to. I don’t have any of the same problems I used to have when I was drinking 6+ beers almost every day.

I don’t know what to tell you as it pertains to staying on the wagon. You have to want to do it.

In my case, my life had fallen apart and I blamed at least an amount of it on alcohol. So I had my reasons for stopping. It wasn’t like I had to really try and fight some urge to drink. I literally didn’t want to at all. I’m glad because had I kept drinking, I would have probably just increased my intake and made my life that much worse. I really don’t believe I would have lived through it all if I had tried to keep drinking during that time. I barely lived through it as it was. Using alcohol to cope would have just made it worse.

The downside is that it took a lot of bad shit happening for me to take that attitude. But that’s what it takes for some people I guess.

Take magnesium supplements as well

Or candida

I dunno about all that other shit people are saying but I do know that zinc isn't bad for you. I take Zicam Cold Remedy Zinc Medicated Fruit Drops, Manuka Honey. Delicious and it's a rare occasion that I ever get sick. It's good for your immune system.

They make a Manuka honey with lemon too if you like that sort of thing, I prefer the regular honey one.

A zinc deficiency is very easy to determine as found below quite a ways down the page:

Basically hold this stuff in your mouth if it tastes nasty you have an optimal amount of zinc, if it tastes like water you are deficient.

You take zinc for RNA viruses, not as a vitamin. It's bad for you.

Withdraws bruh Had them for awhile when I quit drinking still do
