Hi. I started going through what I believe are withdrawl symptoms because of my alchohol and fioricet use (abuse). I drink 2-3 glasses of white wine every night and end up taking one fioricet in the morning to combat my headache and sluggishness from the wine the night before. Sometimes, I might take another fioricet if my headache returns in the afternoon, but that is no more than maybe once a week. I took my fioricet as ususal yesterday am and again in the afternoon. I did not drink any alchohol last night and went to bed early. I have done this many times before where I will skip drinking in favor of a good night's sleep - at least once a week. So, I am confused as to what the hell happened to me this morning. I woke up and was terribly shaky, sick to my stomach, felt almost short of breath and dizzy. It was very strange and alarming. So, of course, I reached for the fioricet, hoping it would stop this reaction and it did within about an hour and a half, I felt totally fine. I think its safe to say I have crossed over from something recreational with the alchohol and taking the fioricet for headaches occasionally to full blown but no one else knows about it, addiction. I am never high, I never miss work or anything. But to have the physical effects I felt this am is pretty significant to being physically addicted to the combo, right? I sucessfully and finally quit smoking after almost 20 years back in May and after that, I feel like I can stop what I am doing with the wine and fioricet. I am just really, really scared of the withdrawl symptoms. This morning really scared me. I felt soo terrible. Almost so, that I could barely shower and get ready for work, that I needed to stay in bed and suffer. God, how do I withdrawl safely? Is it safer to do one substance at a time?
