Hi Guys,

I wonder whether this is just a thing between my circle of friends, but do any of you get 'The Fear' after a night of drinking? As in, you wake up the next day and you feel a strange sense of dissociation and paranoia?

I went out on the lash last night and have had it all day today. It's awful. Just wondering whether I am alone in this or not?

:p
 
you are not alone, i wouldn't call it fear though.

i think its because your always worrying about what exactly you did last night... dreading remembering something horrible that you did.
 
Nope, but i do know some people who always worry that theyve been offensive/unruly, when in fact theyve been fine.
 
I call it "The Guilt". The horrible unfounded feeling of having done or said something stupid or wrong.

Edit:- Strangely this only occurs with a mild hangover, If I'm dying the next day I don't get that feeling.

Usually its who/what I've had sex with....

Waking up and thinking what part of my life I decided to destory last night isn't nice either.

Oh and calling a girl I'm meant to prove I like a controlling front bum worked well.

Yes. I suffer really really badly from it, whether I did anything questionable or not. I think everyone hates me and thinks I'm a complete *******.

I hate it.

Although the last time I had that feeling, my fear was correct......I proposed to my G/F....infront of her mother/brother...

Im getting married on 10th sep 2010........

I had this today, though i remember exactly what i said and did wrong. I dont think i had enough to drink.
 
Nope, not with alcohol, but happens with cannabis quite a lot.

edit/ actually I think I know what you mean. But only after I've got completely wasted, and usually I have said/done something stupid.
 
None of what you are all describing is "the fear".

The fear is when you feel dread about your physical condition and possible impending doom, you can't sleep but can't stay awake, your stomach hurts but you can't face food. Death would seem a fair release but if you survive you would promise never to drink again. There's no way out.

Not sissy feelings about oh I might have embarassed myself last night.
