Hi, I'm in the exact same boat. I had a 10-15 drink a day habit for the past five years, from hard booze to wine to beer to mouth wash. My last drink was two bottles of wine on Sunday in about 1 hour. Monday felt weird, stayed up all night feeling the weight of my decision to stop drinking and reflecting on all of the mistakes I made, the friends whose trust I lost (and will mostly like never get back) and how difficult this process will ultimately be. I slept well last night, despite confessing my addiction to my now ex-girlfriend and having her tell me she doesn't want to support me in this endeavor, because in the grand scheme of things, my health has to come first. But like you too, I worried about seizures, but I told myself that I probably wouldn't get one if I stopped NOW, rather than wait and keep drinking to stave them off. I wish you luck. Feel free to PM me.
