Ya'll, Im Scared
You'll never know until you try. Go to your doctor and explain what's going on and be honest with him/her about your drinking. They can help you.
Ever hear of Doctor/Patient Privilege? Is that more important to you than living a sober life? When you are truly ready to stop drinking, you will be willing to do whatever it takes.
The shakes and sweats (along with a lot of other detox symptoms) are why we encourage you to go to the doctor. Alcohol detox can be deadly. It's always best if you can get medical supervision.
What is a Doctor-Patient Privilege?
A doctor-patient privilege ensures that as a patient, your medical history, conditions, and related information cannot be divulged without your permission. Patients should be able to tell their doctors private and sensitive information knowing that it will not be made public. Even a doctor's observations and opinions are covered by the doctor-patient privilege.

For what? I've never heard of the "Hamsters" site. No one requires anyone to stay in a hospital. If you choose to go to a hospital to detox, that's up to you, but no one is going to force you to stay for any specific length of time. Some people go to the ER, but that doesn't mean you have to be admitted as a patient.
