i always used the thought that i havent been drinking very long (3 years) and have been able to stop for three days at a time, albiet with the shakes but when the Zaps started happening in my sleep and they progressively got worse thru the night i wasnt sure i would make it to the morning. I weighed the options, dont tell my partner and die in my sleep or wake them up and ask to go to the dr or hospital.
it was an all night desicion as i had told everyone i had stopped.
the problem was i had told everyone i had stopped at different days and couldnt keep them all stright anymore. i got tired of all the lies. and i didnt want to die. I have two of the most amazing children in thee world and i put my booze before them and my partner.
