When it goes from been in the pub having a laugh with your mates enjoying your self to when you wake up worrying about what you have done if you should be worried or just over thinking or should see it as it just happens
Over thinking so much you start getting anxiety attacks head starts swimming in self pity and worry to the point when your worrying about going to work just hoping your mood gets better and head sorts out
Feeling like you just wanna curl up and die just leying in bed in the dark thinking
I sorry for venting just once again feel like shit worring over nothing |

Go seek help.
The hardest thing to do is say
"I'm drinking to cover up other problems"...
Now you've said it to yourself, you'll be anxiously looking about for someone else to tell, because a cry for help is outward.
Go see your GP, take a deep breath, you might well find they'll offer you more help than you thought was available.
You're NEVER alone.
To which end, if you need to talk, pm me. No fuss, I totally understand.
The fact you've "vented" on here?
It's a brave start. Get out later, go walking, exercise, breathe.
Good luck, and remember this can change...

Thanks mate its just I feel like everyone else can go out have a drink and laugh without feeling bad about it or worrying then getting your self in to a attack of sweating shaking with your head going a 100 miles an hour
I went to my gp 4years ago and she put me on pills and tbh they do help but I still have days where I just wanna hide away for days |

Well said that man!
Also 'venting' on here certainly shows a lot of courage. Guys aren't exactly helpful with each other's personal issues at the best of times let alone when they're on this site and their main motive is to get their end away!
If you can, seek professional help from an expert. Support from random people on the internet is nice and demonstrates how ever alone you may feel their are people who care, however it doesn't replace expert advice.
Leave the house, go for a short walk (maybe do some errands), embrace the mediocre weather we have in the UK, find private place with a nice view (there are plenty in Yorkshire) and make a phone call. Call your GP and book an appointment to discuss the best plan of action.
Do the whole "deep breath" thing (even though it's clichèd and a tad dramatic). Make a promise to yourself that today is the day that you will tackle your issues instead of sweeping them out of your mind temporarily. Don't be unrealistic in your goals, accept that you will can have bad times again but that you will trend upwards and continue to improve over time |

Alcohol is a depressant and shouldnt be drank if on meds for it, its hard to stay away from it but it wont help in the long run.
Speak to your gp again or mind and see if you can get a therapist or someone who can just be there to support you when down |

You can also self refer to your local talking therapies service - most NHS trusts have an online option to do so. |

Have you had any CBT as well? Talking really does help. Sometimes it's surprising what's worrying you in the recesses of your mind. You might find what it is through talking it through.
Maybe have a soft drink after each alcoholic one too as you know drinking lots doesn't help how you feel. |

Have to agree about alcohol being a depressant and drinking alongside meds. I think In all honesty you should avoid drinking. I understand about you saying that you want to be like the lads but if they are good friends they will understand why it is better that you don't drink. If you are waking up and feeling that after drinking, that feeling will eventually take longer and longer to lift causing even more problems.
Try and get some more sleep, get out for a walk and on Monday get an appt to see the gp, there's nothing wrong with saying you need a bit more help for the moment. Good luck op. |

you guys that reply - ok maybe in jest - that go have a tug is the answer to all need to just check how you reply - real depression is no laughing matter and as much as the forum will always get those kind of remarks they are of no help at all to someone in a low state of mind- op if this is happening often try and keep off the alcohol as this alone is a depressant - exercise to lift your mood - small things but make the day copable with - see your dr and have a chat - x |

The old Beer fear!
Try Hydrotherapy. Grab a cold shower, very cold so your hyperventilating. Start slow, minute by minute gently easing into it until it's a really uncomfortable experience. If it works you'll wonder what all the fuss was about. You said yourself, you worry about nothing. There is nothing to worry about, you brain and body are trying to expel a very powerful drug. You're gonna have a rough time, ups have to have downs.  |

Get an emergency appointment with your gp on Monday. Get some medication and get a referral for cbt. Why suffer help is out there. Keep off the booze if you can. Go running. It will clear your mind. In fact do anything rather than sitting around. Get some help.
Been there myself , came out the other side. |

A sex site is probably the last place you should be if your anxiety is that bad.
Seek some help from your GP as soon as you can and lay off the booze!
For now have a shower go to Holland and Barret and get some Valerian Root - Google it - it will save the day!

I know it's easy for me to say as I'm not having to do but you've answered your own question, you felt better without the drink for 3 months. Can you not take that feeling forward and apply it to when you go out in the future? |

That's still pretty regularly and it really won't help with depression at all. If you've done it before you can do it again. It sounds to me like you should knock drinking on the head totally. |

I gave up drinking late 2015 and its the best thing I have ever done. At the end of the day no one forced me and I can go back to it if I feel the need. I lived with a person who had drink problems (my late husband) and he himself said that drink was the devil to him and it led on to other things. I fail to see the joy in alcohol as to me I associate pubs, booze with negative and painful memories of seeing him at his worst. I am not against others drinking and do still go out and socialise. I had planned to see what happened after a few months fully expecting to go back to it but haven't and don't want to. My weekends are no longer spent feeling hungover and I feel a lot better. Why not have a break from it and see how you feel? As it happens I have health issues now that have reared their ugly head so can't drink anyway which is just as well, but I have never even craved a drop. Now cake I cannot say no to |

alcohol is a drug worse than most others so it comes with side effects that you seem to have experienced. i used to drink and feel bad so gave up well over a year ago and never looked back, best thing i did, i'm always sober, never make bad choices while d*unk, never stink of booze, never can't drive, feel healthier, lost weight, have more money, the list goes on.... i don't see a single attractive thing about booze any more best off without that muck op  |

As someone who has used alcohol to cover my problems for many years i recomend going back to the docs.
It might be that the drugs ain't working any more and its time for a change. I suffer from depression and have had hell of a time fighting it over the last year, but now is the time to change things.
Suns out so get outside, vit D is far more important than we knew and you need to top that up. I am on supplements as mine was so low. Get a bike and for a ride in the sunshine and you will feel better or exhausted, lol.
Hang in there dude you can beat this |

Hey OP
Sometimes things get tough and everyone tells you "things are going to be ok" but they aren't. Sometimes life is a bitch and there is no getting beyond that.
It takes time to get past a feeling like this. But you have to be strong. Lean on the people around you and try to be productive.
Fabbers (is that we are called?) seem to be very nice people who are out to help. |
