Answer by oldtimekid2
First off, congratulations for WANTING to quit!!

As far as answering, when you deal with withdrawal, generally you’ll just have to tough it out, but there are some things that can help cleanse out the toxins and may help to minimize some of the effects of withdrawal…
Drinking water will help to detox, and taking some supplements that work as cleansers may help as well. Specifically, Apple Cider Vinegar, Green Tea (decaffeinated), Chlorophyll (fantastic cleanser), and even good amounts of fiber and water helps some people (although it’s not very comfortable for the lower level of detoxification you get).

All that being said, it’s likely that the symptoms should stop relatively shortly after your last drink (it’s never as long as it feels like it is). Your neurotransmitters don’t take too terribly long to scream for something they are addicted to after you stop.
Another important thing to note is that no matter how bad it gets, taking more alcohol will only make the withdrawal last longer and will be harder on you in the long run. Good luck, and congrats again!

Niacin is used to help aid in the curing alcoholism and was used in Alcoholics Anonymous, not sure if it still is.. Um.. finding out if that person has food allergies that could lead to alcoholism (ex. Allergies to corn, wheat, etc can cause you to crave that food, alcohol being the void filler). Also Glutamine in high doses under the tongue can actually conquer temporarily alcohol cravings, especially if left to dissolve under the tongue.
