does anyone know how much you had to have been drinking every day to have severe withdraw symptoms

THat's a question best answered by a doctor or addiction expert. None of here are doctors, and even if we were it would be irresponsible and dangerous to 'diagnose' or 'predict' over the internet.

Withdrawal can be serious or just annoying. But getting help with getting thru the w/d is always a good idea, cause you never know how bad, or how easy, w/d will be. Be safe.

There are too many individual factors for anyone on the internet to answer that italianlady.

Please see a Doctor - it really is the best course of action.

The key words are "every day"

Drinking daily and stopping abruptly can shock your body-specially blood pressure.

See a doctor!

Like everyone said it's probably best to see a doctor ... I personally had shakes (really annoying) and anxiety (also annoying) but it faded for me ... hang in there! Do not give into the cravings! If you feel a crave try to occupy yourself for a little bit. For me a half hour of guitar or some XBOX bides the time till the craving gives up.
