To describe detoxing from alcohol as sick would be an understatement. I did not detox off anything else in combination. I just went cold turkey from a hard core alcohol addiction, and in retrospect should have gone to a doctor.

I shook, sweat, threw up, dry heaved--that was for three days. I could not walked, had stomach cramps, chest pains, legs spasms, and drifted in and out of a delirious half sleep.

On top of that it was the start of day 3 when I hallucinated large multi-colored webs drifting around the room, and swirling patterns in the carpet. Then there was the party on television I saw when the television was off, the dancing rabbits on the wall--and finally I will not tell you what i saw.

No one would ever take a pill to see what i saw then.

After 5 days i started to feel better, but still had not actually slept.

That was the last detox I went through, and I have not drank again. I hope no one else decides to push their luck this far.
