A member asked:
If you suddenly stop quit drinking what do withdrawals feel like?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Jittery to seizure: Depending on how much and how long have you been drinking, withdrawal can be mild symptoms of jitteriness, anxiety, sleep disturbance, sweating, diarrhea, headache etc. To more severe symptoms such as confusion, delirium, hallucination, tremors and some case of seizure--bad! so, if u have been a heavy drinker, consult doc for treatment. Stay sober, stay well, stay alive. Good luck.
