CAn you see a different doctor, or go to the emergency department of the nearest hospital? We're talking about your life here. Withdrawal from alcohol can be life-threatening, especially considering how much and how often you've been drinking.
Do'nt tell your fiance if you think he'll blow a gasket, but please do get medical help. And if you absolutely refuse to get medical help I can only say to drink lots of water and juice, soft food, B vitamins, and chamomile tea can help with the shakes and anxiety, as can evening primrose oil.
I really hope you can get help tho.
Sorry this wasn't the type of response I was expecting.
Alcoholism and withdrawing from alcohol brings up a lot of unexpected things. Do what's best for YOU.
How do I suddenly go to the GP and go "im an alcoholic??" Ive been on antidepressants for 12 years. But as i work in the NHS I feel i would be judged.
Maybe better to undergo a little judgement (and health professionals are not supposed to judge their patients) and come out of it healthy and still alive than to let fear of judgement kill you - literally. The choice is yours. It's your life.
