Yes i do, dont stop cold turkey if you are a heavy drinker it could lead to seizures! You are doing the right thing by reaching out! Great job. I know what detoxing is all about... defiantly have somebody with you just in case and you have probably heard about aftercare it is truly important for myself I needed a 12 step program for support I wish you well and pls keep me updated or if you have any questions feel free to ask me!!

A man i knew at age 15 who had a bad alcohol problem then died a few months ago at age 39.We all loved him.He was a binge drinker.Was at neighbors house drinking.Came home fell down basement steps and cracked his head open.He lie there for 4 hours until his wife came home and rushed him to ER.He died within 24 hours.His BAC. was .39.Many alcoholics have fatal accidents at home and end up dead or severly incapacitated.Hope you get a handle on  this soon...sounds like u drink alone at home quite a lot!

Hello. Detox is a b1tch, with or without help. But If you are willing to go to any lengths afterwards, there is a solution. Do you want to live or die? That's essentially what it comes down to. If you need medical help, get it. But overcoming the initial shock is but a beginning. However, the rewards are exceedingly surprising. It is your choice. Take care, GM
