I drink 6 beers every night. the next day i feel fine. i am in good shape and eat well. its been 24 hours and i am fine. am i still in danger of dt's?

No: DT's requires usually far more alcohol than 6 beers (assuming you are talking 12 oz bottles and not 40s). However, this is beyond safe drinking limits, which are 4 or less per day and FOURTEEN standard drinks per week (you are at FORTY-TWO). This is excessive drinking that will likely escalate and is already enough to cause other health problems. Moderate your drinking and/or get help if you cant.
