i just woke up, right now i feel madd hungover. i read somewhere it takes 24 48 hres for serious withdraw to kick in. i hope i just feel better after the hangover.
you have to wean yourself off. like quitting cigarettes you have to decrease the amount of alcohol in your system so your body isnt shocked when its not there anymore aka withdrawing. so instead of having like 4 drinks a day and going straight to nothing. go like 4 drinks a day for a couple days then 3 drinks and 2 and so on until you get to like 1 drink a week and then stop drinking if you want. its a long process but it works. just have patients and a friend or two to help
Just make sure you tough it out now then. If you think its bad now, imagine how it will be in 5 years if you don't deal with it now. Call some friends to help if it gets worse.
Man, i know first hand how bad alcohol can affect people. My dad lost his life from alcohol, so i know just how serious the addiction can get. Good luck man, i really hope u get through this quick. At least you admitted that you got a problem, and have the balls to face it. Good luck man.

dude stfu.....you cant tell someone who is an alcoholic to wean him self off.....
dude the only thing can do is just stay away from people who do it till you are totally clean...then after that its all mental and testing your mental strength
I posted this on another page, but i thought i should update this shit for the people who gave a fuck and tried to help me out, thank you guys and girls. back then i didnt have anyone to talk to and yooz were there to give me wordz of hope! thanks
(i havent really talked about it on here since when i was thinking of quiting and asking for advice) but ,this is pretty much my story and what happened to me. my drinking was getting wayy out of hand, all i was doing was drinking all day and night madd beers, madd whisky for years. when i 1st quit i had a rough time for a few months with the shakes, DT's, fevers, stomach issues, anxiety, insomnia, i was fuckin paronoid, shit was real real bad, I was even hospitalized for a while. my suggestion for anyone who'z been drinking heavily for a while, don't fuck around and try to quit cold turkey like i did, just go right to the hospital, i waited a few days and was a complete mess by the time i got to the hospital, they pretty much saved my ass, (look up Delerium Tremens, thats what i was going through.) if anyone is dealing with same shit, just go to the hospital, the withdraw will still suck, but at least you wont be risking your life. i'm real grateful to be sober today, i dont ever wanna go back to that fucked up mess. now i go to counseling once a week (it helps) and i'm on a slight dose of meds for anxiety. I've been sober going on 8 months now. it took a while, but now i'm feeling alot better. i lost alot of weight, i'm healthier, and clear headed now. and i have more money cause i'm not spending it all on booze and i spend more time giving my fiance attention and chilling with friends and family.
Thanks everyone for your support, I really appreciated it!

Good job broski
Congrats, you've also got the award for me posting for the first time. Don't really want to but this was a good enough reason to say/type something.
