Jess, I dont know anything about you or your drinking habits, but I really think you should get some medical advice before you detox on your own. A doc may be able to help with the physical symptoms you're feeling. Please take care x

I am feeling very anxious, shaky, stressed and dirty, I CANT drink to make these feelings go away.
Jess, I felt the same way at the end of my drinking career. Exactly the same way. When I stopped drinking, I found out that DRINKING CAUSES THESE FEELINGS. Drinking made me anxious, shaky, stressed and ashamed. Of course you can't drink them away.

Read your post again and see if you come to the same conclusion I do.

If you can't see your GP, it might be worth getting to A&E, please be careful, alcohol withdrawl is best managed by a clinician.

Alcoholics Anonymous is free and in your neighbourhood.

Jess, you will have to come to the point where you realize that you have to do this by yourself or go to AA.

If you can do it by yourself ... go for it !! More power to you.

If you need help, call AA in your telephone book ... of keep getting worse. You will have to decide.

All the best.
