Thanks everyone for all your help and kind advice. I'm at about 10 hours since my last drink now and my body isn't happy about it. I feel weak, cold, and shaking. My wife is leaving for the city soon and I'll head to the gym. I'm going to do cardio for 2 hours at highest possible level. Hopefully I can pump the alcohol out faster that way. My wife saw my hand shaking and she looked worried..... took a klonopin and that evened me out a little.
I will probably talk to my doctor about this next day off.
Excellent advice about my boss, telling him I am on meds. He'll respect that.
I've read some other posts about weaning myself, gradually cutting back to prevent severe withdrawl, etc. Is there an official position on that? It's what my wife suggested. I don't think I am a candidate for DT to be honest, but I'm not a doctor.
One way or another, I will not be drinking before or during work. I'm going to take some extra klonopin with me just in case.
I'll check back in when I get to work, hopefully feeling better after a good sweat.
