Alcohol is one of the MOST dangerous drugs to detox from. If you ever went out drinking and suffered a hang over the next day, multiply that by 1, 2 or ten years of constant daily drinking.

“Never heard that before.”

It’s the DT’s, it can vary from hallucinations (thus the jokes about seeing pink elephants) to seizures or in the worst case death.

It’s worse than heroine detox.
