My latest WD experience was by far the most difficult I have ever found it to resist drinking again immediately in the morning. Dramatically more difficult than any time I have previously experienced. Prior to this five day binge, the previous month had been an unusually low drinking month for me due to my circumstances (staying with family), a maximum of one, one day binge per week. There was a time when 5 day binges were normal, for the past year or more it has been uncommon for me to go on binges longer than 2 days. Again, I had felt this was a good sign, that my ratio of drunk days vs sober days was better, but of course this has meant going through a lot more hangovers/withdrawals.

EDIT: Not every cold turkey was a 'complete' cold turkey, there have been incidences where I had very drunk binges followed by lower drinking days (2-4 beers) followed by no drinking the next day.
