Going from 4-5 bottles of wine per day to zero. Will I die from delirium tremens?

Or is it safe

Delirium tremens (DTs; lit. 'mental disturbance with shaking') is a rapid onset of confusion usually caused by withdrawal from alcohol.[2] When it occurs, it is often three days into the withdrawal symptoms and lasts for two to three days.[2] Physical effects may include shaking, shivering, irregular heart rate, and sweating.[1] People may also hallucinate.

Could be some good shit, fun as fuck.

Did you get a DUI two days ago?

i'm not sure i'm buying the 4-5 bottles a day claim, unless it's 0,5l ones

my daily average (on 8-9 out of 10 days) for the last 2 or so years has been 2l of wine (12% or so alcohol). and i already have an insanely high and cross-tolerance (benzos, hypnotics). 2,5l seems to be the border of vomit alert territory for me

I drink 3-4 bottles of wine in an evening/night when im binge-drinking. These are 0.7L ones, 12% alcohol.
Recently I started regularly day-drinking on-top by doing another 1-2 bottles during the day.

I don't ever vomit. Don't compare yourself to a lion.

i ALS-ALT-DDTmog you to oblivion. only started vomiting after months of taking some cringe snris that even impair the liver function on their own, and i'm fat as fuck and an alcohol-connoisseur on top of that

but yeah, 3/4 x 0,7 is believable. 12% wine basically tastes/feels like mineral water after a certain point

Damn that nigger descended horribly
Migrants, woke ideology, Trump fucked Clark Kent up. After he surrendered his special gifts for a roastie (Lois Lane,) he started hitting the bottle. When he was Superman, he couldn't get drunk. But today, he takes advantage of this weakness.

Quit gradually, not cold turkey.
Get some baclofen if you can, it will eliminate all withdrawal symptoms.

Clark also got infected by the pronoun shit. Today, he identifies as a human when we all know this motherfucker's a Kryptonian shooting up kryptonite. This is why he has no powers. Like a heroin junkie, every morning he jams a vein with a needle. Pathetic. He does this so he can please that journalist whore.
 
It depends on how long you were drinking 4-5 bottles of wine per day for. If you drank that for over a week straight then there is a possibility of seizures and such.

I think you'll be okay as long as you taper down and don't continue to drink in excess. It's suddenly stopping drinking entirely that will really mess you up.

Have you ever had alcohol withdrawal symptoms before? Maybe you've got experience being on long binges and having to stop suddenly.

I mean hand tremors are very common for me to have. Also like sweating profusely for no reason and my body going from being cold to hot for no reason and vice versa.

Ill taper it down and quit this stuff for a lil while

It's so weird because I can quit drinking when I'm alone but then I go out with a friend and I'll want to get rid of my sober feeling so I go to a bar with them or buy a bottle and then immediately I'm back to square one. I don't know how to hang out with people and be sober. The problem with alcohol for me started a few years back when I quit smoking weed & replaced weed with alcohol.

It's just the boredom and not wanting to be sober that keeps bringing me back, not the fact that I love alcohol. I don't even get drunk when I drink I just do it to feel like I'm not sober.

I had gotten auditory hallucinations one day after a long binge. It was so weird but I kept hearing things that weren't there and felt very loopy. Music was on repeat in my head for some reason as well.

I ended up drinking yesterday with a friend and when I do that, it just completely reverts me to my alcoholic tendencies. I was doing good for a while though not drinking much at all.

Sounds rough. Because when I think of quitting alcohol I am mainly talking about qutiting drinking on my own in my room. I am mentally accepting to drink socially which probably means ill always relapse in the end too. But that's already better than I am doing now.

What does back to square one mean to you? If you are doing well without alcohol for a while, and then relapse for a while and then stop drinking again. You are probably already doing much better than you were doing before right?

Square one is where you were at your absolute lowest. When you didn't care about your alcoholism, when you didn't care to quit, when you just drank it all, all the time, every day.

That is square one. I think you are doing much better already, if only it is that you are aware of the problem and trying to fix it. So you aren't at square one, you are probably at like square 3 or 4, even when you relapse.

Don't be too hard on yourself. You don't go from alcoholism to a healthy sober life where you don't need this coping mechanism anymore, nor weed.
That takes time with ups and downs.

I think that drinking by yourself is more dangerous because it's a lot easier to drink more in terms of quantity. Drinking socially is probably just a stepping stool to become a solitary drinker.

Yeah, I agree with what you say about drinking socially causing a total relapse aka sitting in your house all day drinking by yourself. This is what's happening to me. I can quit drinking by myself because I view it as more dangerous but then when I'm out in the world with a friend I drink with them and then it restarts my cycle of sitting home doing nothing but drinking. Square one is just that: sitting home doing nothing except drinking and not even bothering to go out with friends because I'm content sitting home.

I think the cycle of quitting and going back to it because I triggered the addictive tendencies is just as bad as being a full-blown alcoholic and never stopping at all. I am doing better because of course quitting for any amount of time is good but it doesn't last. I think part of the reason I go back is because I think I can limit myself because I've quit it before for relatively long periods of time so I think that I have it under control but it's so easy to slip back into a viscous cycle.

Well, it's probably the same for you at this point because it seems like you know you need to stop (at least when it comes down to drinking alone) which is good. And yes you're right even when I start up the habit again because I go out with someone I still know that I need to stop.

Do you think you have good self-control if you were to go out with a friend to a bar/socially drink? Like do you know when to quit? I have the problem of not knowing when to quit sometimes. The thing is you have access to other drugs and such so alcohol itself isn't really the only way you can manage certain symptoms whereas I quit doing actual drugs a long time ago so I don't really have any other way of getting rid of that sober feeling besides drinking. Without any kind of coping mechanism, life can get pretty boring.

I mean, drinking with others means you are only binge-drinking 1-3 days per week generally (weekends) and then stay sober the rest of the week.
Whilst drinking solitary, you can always do it, any day you want. Which is dangerous, because then you could be drinking 7 days a week.

That's rough. Because social connection is good, but then perhaps try to find it in situations in which binge-drinking isn't part of the experience.
I can't really relate because i have no friends and alway drink solo, so my binge-drinking relapses now mostly come from me just saying fuck it and not caring. But when I am drinking I am generally more social, than less social.

Mehh it's not as bad, because you at least realize the problem and there's a will to change it. You said you can manage to not drink at times, but of course you are drinking for a reason. You are escaping some pain or don't want to feel something you are lacking in life. And as long as those issues aren't tackled, it will always be a struggle I think.

I tend to adjust to my social surroundings with the amount that I am drinking. If others are getting hammered, I join. If others are going small on the amount of alcohol, I will go above that but not get hammered.

Yeah I do other drugs, it's true.
I agree with you that it's this sober feeling you are trying to get rid off. And I think it's good to question why you feel so bad when being sober and take small steps to fix that and feel better about yourself. Cuz else you will always look for distraction, whether is alcohol, drugs, videogames, or whatever
