Sounds like PAWS (Post Accute Withdrawl Syndrome).Alcohol effects the same receptors as benzo's do (the GABA I think) and if you know anything abount benzodiazepine withdrawl it's hell.Can she see a doctor??Usually a anti-depressant works well or a weak benzo like librium.Can you get her to take some councilling as this must be a huge lifestyle change for her.Good luck.....Dave:)
