alcohol withdrawal? please help?

[Taryn B]

I have been on a 4 month drinking binge, ranging from drinking 3 40's a day to half a bottle of vodka, and yesterday was my first day not drinking and i could feel my heart racing, , and today i feel like i need to vomit, its been like that since i woke up, and i feel really really hot and my muscles ache, i was wondering if that is all symptoms of alcohol withdrawal, ive had a drinking problem for 2 years but it just escalated when summer started. please help me out thanks.

Drinking is known to cause aches and pains when you stop, and as for your heard drinking also causes anxiety attacks which can also feel like you are going to have a heart attack and die especially if you've been drinking alot and suddenly stop all of a sudden.

Just hang in there drink lots of water and get to AA.I wish you luck because the first step is realizing you have a problem.Please go to AA or get some other counseling.

4 months, it could be minor. I think the definition is 5months of 5 pints or more will cause the body some major withdrawal. I did 1 year everyday of 9-12 beers. Finally had it though. Slowed down a month ago of drinking 3 4 times a week of 6 drinks. And i even felt withdrawal cutting down. went cold turkey 4 days ago. Got some mad symptons. Shaking, Confusion, Sweating, Slight hallucinations. Finally had it, today went to doctor, couldn't even talk to the receptionist i wuz feeling so crappy. Told doctor the situation. Gave me valium, 7 days worth, while body detoxes. Took first valium an hour ago, feeling better. Not all high and crap like they say. Valium is a benzanoi-something something. keeps the GABA in your brain going, like alcohol use to. Definately goto your family doctor. Goto Wikipedia.com , It will give you some insight.Good Luck, Screw alcohol.ps. realred has no idea what he's talking about.
