Alcohol Detox?

and it could take several weeks

Answer 2

3-5 days.  Make sure you eat right.  Your body will be craving sugar and carbohydrates.  Eat a bit more protein, that may help reduce the effects.

Answer 3

If when you stop drinking you start to shake, you need a medical detox.  Basically, alcohol replaced the role of GABA in your body, and that compound is used to control the firing rate of synapses in your brain.  Without your body producing GABA, and without alcohol, your brain fires randomly, causing shaking, seizures, etc.  I'm not sure of the cost, but it usually takes 1 week as an inpatient procedure.

Alcohol is the only drug I'm aware of which has a withdrawl that can be potentially fatal all by itself.  Even heroin withdrawl won't kill you (but from what I've heard, you'll feel like killing yourself to make it stop).

But, if you don't shake, then you don't have that problem.  Your body will be able to function without alcohol, you just need to get your mind to accept a lifestyle without alcohol.
