Question: What would you say this sounds like!?
15 year old who gave up excessive consumption of alcohol around 4 months ago and Experienced terrbible withdrawal symptoms and still craves alcohol badly, never saw a professional about it!. She now smokes to relieve stress and she can't tell her parents anything because she feels incredibly uncomfortable talking to ANYONE about anything!. She would much rather suffer than talk to someone, even though she desperately wants help!. She is usually fine in the day but cries uncontrollably most nights, and has thoughts of suicide!. Can't concentrate on school work and is failing, has no motivation anymore for things like going out with friends!. She sometimes feels so upset at night she throws up and she gets a pain in her chest!. She's got friends but can't talk to them, and is desperate for help because she doesn't know how long she can carry on!. All she does is crave alcohol and drugs, she can't get it out of her head!. It's killing her, she's upset all the time!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I am no doctor but if she is taking drugs, that might have a lot to do with her behaviour, specially if she is giving up something that soothes her pain (like alcohol and drugs)!. That might lead to some kind of stress disorder!. You said that she is smoking to relief stress and throwing uo in the night, that is a sign of stress I know!. So this could really be major panic disorder!.
But it can be so much!.!. the best thing is to go see a doctor, he is the only one who can analyze her problem!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

If she was addicted to Alcohol you can't just give it up, she needs to ease off of it!. If you just stop your mind and body will go through withdrawal, which is where she is getting the depression from!. Also because she just stop drinking her body is looking for something to give her that edge which lead to the Drugs!.
So now she will need to ease of the drugs and how bad she thinks it may be, she still needs to talk to somebody about it!. Not so much her friends (because you never know what they might throw back in your face)!. Naturally people would say go to your parents, but lets face it we don't want our parents thinking any less of us then they already do!. So tell your grandparents or whatever over 18 years old family member you feel comfortable around!. And tell your Guidance counselor so you don't fail out of high school!.
The thoughts of suicide just comes from all the things you are keeping to yourself (I know because i have the same problem)!. But you also have some of the depression signs!. Trying getting a boyfriend or girlfriend just something to get your mind focused on something else!. Call 1-866-697-8487 (if you don't live in NY then you would have to go to your state Quit smoking site) but they will give you free patches and gum!. They might just get your off your addiction for drugs and maybe even alcohol!.
If you do all of that you should be just fine but if you still feel like you can't do it, call the Maury show or any show closer to you, even though they are TV shows they really do help for free!. Good Luck mateyWww@Answer-Health@Com
