Re: Tapering off alcohol

Hi and welcome
I was never able to taper - if I had alcohol I had to drink it all at once.Sometimes its not safe to taper either.
I've recently, in the past month or so, started getting scary withdrawal symptoms at work. I'll start twitching or my head will jerk and spasm. I'll get hot flashes and my hands will shake.So last week I hit a new low. As a safety precaution I'll bring some mini bottles with me to work and if I feel like the withdrawals are getting too bad I'll go to my car on break and take a few drinks.
If things are that bad, please seek medical help jttx81.
