memory problems, in a fog after drinking binge Posted: 02-17-08 21:40pm


Hi, I'm Jeremy from Ottawa, Canada. Heres my issue. I'll start from the beginning.. I was a weekend drinker since i was 13/14.. sometimes i'd go a month or two without drinking with no problems. I decided to quit drinking about 4 months ago, when I was 19.. and my 20th birthday passed, and I drank a big amount like 14-15 beers, well drank till I passed out. Woke up still drunk, but feeling fine.. Then I had the worst hangover of my life, my mind was totally disoriented.. and I had super high anxiety.. that lasted a good 4-5days.. Went to the doctor for anxiety, was prescribed to lorazepams for a week, it'd help alot when I took em that week. anxiety died down, and its like a month after that binge, I feel crappy, all the time....my mind is a huge fog, i'm having short term memory problems.. and can't concertrate.. or anything.. Mind you, i've been eating totally healthy and drinking tons and tons of water, boosting my body back with vitamins. but its not really helping. Ronnie said I might have PAWS. I'm thinking, either I have brain damage.. even tho I've drank tons more than this before.. and never had such symptoms.. or..? Please help.. I don't want to sound like a total fool whenever I go to the hospital. Edit/Delete Message
