Alcohol is one of those things that can be dangerous to go off of if you are dependent on it because it can cause seizures and other symptoms. Do you think you can get into a detox or rehabilitation program that will help you go off the alcohol in a safe way? Your insurance might cover it. They will be able to provide medical intervention if necessary and try to make the process of detoxing at least a tiny bit more comfortable for you, although it will still not feel good.

Sorry for late response. I no longer drink everyday and used extra klonopin to get me over the hump(the same class of medication they give to alcoholics at detox). Klonopin withdrawal can also mess you up bad and cause seizures, but a gradual taper is considered easier on the brain than going off of it quickly in a detox facility. My insurance would not cover a properly long detox and most insurance policies are like that.
