Detox

Hi Folks, I've been drinking 2 12 packs of Carlsberg lager a day for many years (24 cans), I'm detoxing tomorrow using Valium, it would be great if you guys and gals could support me, I have no one left that cares, I'll keep you updated through my detox.

I've pretty much burnt out every support network (home detox, hospital detox, familly detox) etc so I'm doing it solo,

Wish me luck and God Bless.

DownandOut.

I doubt you can burn out a hospital detox....be careful, and look to forces within yourself to motivate your recovery. Anything else never worked for me, I had to want to better my own life, after dragging myself through 4 years of pain and misery looking up and down for happiness and comfort. With booze in the picture, I was never able to find it. (think about it anyway)

Best wishes to you for a safe journey back to sanity and health!

And promise you'll call 911 if you start feeling really sick....They aren't paid to love you at the hospital - they are paid to help you get well!

It's awfully risky to do a de tox on your own.
Please take the time to read this link...don't hesitate to get medical assistance

I relate to being burnt up with detox and getting help from family or hospitals. I would be turned away from a hospital & I would have to stagger to the next one and hope they didn't remember me. Gatorade, water and eating good will help.
