Here is the deal i was drinking a fifth of vodka and a 6 pack of imported beer a night i did this for about 2 years in January i went to rehab anyways after being totally sober for 3 months i fell off the wagon and drank ... not as heavy but about a 12 pack a night for the last 2 weeks . Will i have the bad withdrawal symptoms that will endanger me and will i need to taper off the stuff or check into a clinic or get a prescription ???

Sorry its just i am drinking tonight cause i am afraid of that happening .. if thats not the case and i will be safe well i will be cold turkey tomorrow. I'm kinda the kind of person that if i think i can get sick i will start feeling sick even if its not the case

Thank you for your time !

MIchael I am not sure anyone here will be able to answer that for you. It sounds like you want to stop drinking again. You did well for a period after rehab, is revisiting the medical people who helped you then an option for you?

I agree with Instant. Sometimes the rehabs...transition you into Outpatient after being discharged. Maybe that can help with a good relapse prevention program for yourself?

i could walk into a quick care place and ask but the point is do you become physically dependent very fast if you fall off ? I mean having sweets and not sleeping good i can live with just do not want to start seeing stuff or die lol

I have relapsed i just am worried about hte medical side of it if stooping means noting major will happen to me then i am stopping tomorrow.

Hi and welcome Michael

I always recommend getting medical advice from your Dr, Michael - the internet's not the place to get medical advice like this - none of us are Drs, none of us know your clinical history, and withdrawal has too many individual factors - its different for everyone.

Play it safe and see a Dr.

cool You think a quick care place would work ?? like one of those walk in clinics

Anna

That might work, Michael. We don't give medical advice here.

Opivotal

They have medical Doctors there. Just be honest about your consumption and your fears. Follow the instructions and don't be afraid to go back if necessary. I'm not trying to scare you...I just want you to be safe.

Let us know how it goes.

Michael1234567

I understand no one can give medical advice .. but in general when you fall off like i did do u need to medical detox again ??? In general what ever you answer i am still going to the doc tomorrow

Anna

Michael, we don't know if you need medical detox. We're not doctors.

Please get the help you need.

Michael1234567

I understand and i am glad for everyone help .. I can't be the only person that has fallin off the wagon on this forum . I just want to know in general does this cause a huge problem i am going to the doctor tomorrow regardless i just want to know lol

another question if i do need meds to safely stop again do i have to check in somewhere or can u get them over the counter ?

Anna

Michael, you don't seem to understand.

We don't give any kind of medical advice.

Michael1234567
