I think I subconsciously wanted this anyway, as I was getting too complacent. Onwards and upwards, as they say.
Troy, please just stop. Talk to a doctor. Mine prescribed librium and told me to take it only just before the times I would normally crave a drink. It's helping and I'm taking it just as he directed, not abusing it. There are things you can do to help you get through detox without using alcohol. That's such a slippery slope. You can do this, we are all pulling for you.
