PLease consult your doctor before quitting drinking. Withdrawal from alcohol can be dangerous. Do you have any ideas for a program to get and keep you sober? AA is very helpful for a lot of people, but there are other programs for sobriety out there.

You can get yourself sober by not drinking one day at a time. Just don't drink FOR TODAY. If you have an urge to drink, post about it here so we can help you thru it without giving in to alcohol. Also lots of good info on quitting in a 'sticky' at the top of the Alcoholism forum page.

I wish you the best in your efforts to stop drinking. It can be done, but it's not easy. You have to focus all your energy into staying sober.

Welcome!

Welcome! Glad you are here! I personally have never taken Camparal but have taken other medications as far as withdrawal meds. I definitely would recommend working with your Dr. to get through the detox process. Plus you may want to check out the sticky in the alcoholism forum--"Quitting.. what to expect...what we did" Reaching out to others is a huge step--prayers and info are coming your way.

Your desire to quit is a great first step Sam. Good to see that you have seen your Dr.
