I do not advise detoxing on your own. You could actually die. I detoxed in the hospital. When I was brought in my BP was 180/120 and my pulse was 155. I was hallucinating and sweating and I thought I was going to die. I had been drinking 18+ standard drinks a day for a couple of months. But I was an alcoholic for a solid 8 years....got progressively worse.
Go to the ER.
