I’m trying to stop drinking.. I have binged drank several times the past week.
Would it help to drink a little bit (shot or 2) and gradually ease off the alcohol over completely stopping and suffering the detox/withdrawal???
I’m very shakey, tired.. no headache though.
Have you gone thru this??
thanks
Yes been to a few AA meetings.. just started an outpatient program.. I need advice on how to feel better with the withdrawal.

Cold turkey, you won’t be able to do this if you even touch another drink. Have you ever been to Alcoholics Anonymous?
Your doctor should be able to give you some medication to help with withdrawal, it is helpful for short term use and should get you through the worst..good luck
Lots of water and Gatorade!!! Believe me, the shaking WILL stop and it will be worth it. NO more alcohol! The shaking will pass. Do something to keep your mind off it.
No I don’t think it would help to try and wean yourself off of it..I would think that would just set you back in your goal. You just have to tough it out. Once you make it past the initial withdrawal and commit to quitting, it’s alot easier. My husband went through it 4 years ago. He was shaky, tired, vomiting, had a horrible headeache. He hasn’t had a drop since. Good Luck!
