I would add that the amount that one drinks and the frequency is not always a true indicator of how bad withdrawals will be. It's also worth mentioning that subsequent withdrawals can increase in intensity, so making this your last one would be a great idea!

You mentioned in your other post that you've already been to the doctor and have been prescribed some meds to help out in your own detox, I'd highly recommend following the dr's orders regarding the meds.

In the meantime you could also start looking into a plan or resources moving forward. The meds and withdrawals themselves are only temporary - you will need to have a formal plan to stay sober too once that process is done.
