How long straight have you been drinking?
I used to drink no more than 3 days straight because that was all I could handle and survive the hangover. I mean drinking hard for 3 days.
I usually only did 2 straight. I was the drunk who nailed the beer and then stopped drinking and detoxed before i did it again.
The worst hangovers I had were from vodka so I stayed away from it... but damn did I almost feel like I was dying the next day hangover from vodka this last time. Scared me a bit which might be why i quit again.
I was at a highway safety class about 4 years ago and the teacher said a young man came through one day and did his best to stay sober for the class... and he was sober. But the poor kid knelt over and died right there man. Yes he died from quitting cold turkey because he needed to be sober for the class from a dui.
if you have been on alcohol awhile and fear quitting go see a doc.
