Depends on you and your liver and meds you may be taking. To test I would stop drinking sand check BP and pulse every 3 hours and record if you feel jittery or not each time. Keep a diary and share with your Dr. You did not say how much total CD ethanol you get every day. Drink size is important to document especially in an alcoholic. If BP and pulse go up & you are jittery you are withdrawing

The best way to detox is under a Doctor's supervision. You may need to be in the hospital to reduce side effects from withdrawal.
