I know how hard it must feel right now. You're breaking the cycle, making the change. It's a challenge but it's not impossible. Just do what ever it takes (order some takeout, go for a walk, watch Netflix, call a friend, anything) to get through the night without drinking. You can do this!
Awesome work so far. Get to an AA meeting or phone a friend. Go sit somewhere that would be really awkward to drink. Don't walk, ride, or drive near a bar, liquor store or any place that sells booze. You can do this.

Thank you All. .I made it through the night. .I ate alot and read. .still had the sweats and broken sleep..my boyfriend has my vehicle in the evening so it makes it harder to get out. .which is good..he is VERY supportive..
Hi Bev. I'm glad you made it through. We say it all the time, but it is true - the fog will lift, the anxiety will lessen, the sun will come out again. Better days lie ahead. This never has to happen again.
Then seek treatment.
On my first appoitment the medical nurse actually told us if we had been drinking to keep on as to prevent a seizure and on our next individual appoitment they would detox us and go forth from there. They really play it safe or safest those people.
I would actually recommend not to drink but get into a clinic for a week prescription and then take it from there wih support and treatment.
