Default coping w/ alcohol
I went thru a period of time(weeks) where I drank to get drunk everyday. Before my concussion I probably averaged about 2-3 drinks in an entire year. Suddenly I find myself craving alcohol, although I stopped getting drunk everyday a couple weeks ago.

I know it is part a result of feeling sorry for myself and the headaches I get daily. Alcohol doesnt' help but I'm drunk with a headache instead of sober. Seems so strange to have these compulsions when I never had anything like it towards alcohol before.

Has anyone else had probs. like this w/ drinking?

(I am 15 months PCS and hope to be back to work soon)
