UPDATE: GETTING A SCRIPT TODAY. THANK GODS. This was so fucking bad.

A Grindr date lifted my script but I'm not gonna go to the pigs over it which is the only way I can get it filled. Luckily I only have to wait 3 days (it's already been 4) to get more but I am. Losing. My. Mind. How do I deal with this? Stay asleep on benadryl (the poor man's Peterson method)? My dogs a seizure trained ESA and won't leave my side so I'm fucking spooked

          lol I'm going to put your fucking head in a toilet holy shit

          Booze and benzos work on the same receptors and ease each other's withdrawals. It's common fucking knowledge for anyone that's dealt with addiction to either.

          That's all I was suggesting.

          It's not a cure, it's not going to stop the addiction, it's just an actionable bandaid if you're in a predicament like the OP is.

          But, yeah, I get it you hate alcohol and blah blah blah blah blah blah.

            well i'm sorry i misunderstood the receptor thing. I've lived with alcoholics but i have never been an alcoholic. having lived with alcoholics I find it sus when people tell each other to use alcohol. Apologies.

              It's fine, I didn't explain it well and I get pissed off when people get judgy about the booze and lack of medical care stuff.

              I'm more sorry

                      Here's a source fwiw, I should have included this originally. It was not the kind of post to be lazy on and I appreciate being called out on it.

                      https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4606320

                      Benzodiazepines are cross-tolerant with alcohol and modulate anxiolysis by stimulating GABA-A receptors [24]. During withdrawal from one agent, the other may serve as a substitute. They are proven to reduce withdrawal severity and incidence of both seizures and delirium tremens (DT) [40–42].

                        Thanks for sharing! I genuinely was not educated about any of that, so I appreciate it. I'll try to be less stigmatic towards alcohol use in the future.
