Alcoholism requires detoxification before beginning treatment and recovery. When alcohol residuals remain in the body, cravings will continue and recovery from alcohol addiction will be very difficult to achieve. Alcohol detox should be done under the care of a licensed medical facility. Attempting to detox from alcohol without the proper professional help is extremely dangerous. It can result in serious physical, psychological, and emotional consequences which can include death.

The intensity and severity of the withdrawal symptoms due to the discontinuation of alcohol depend on the usage history of the individual. Each alcohol detox program is unique to the individual in regards to the duration of time and special care they may require.

Symptoms of alcohol withdrawal include sweating, rapid pulse, increased hand tremors, insomnia, nausea or vomiting, physical agitation, anxiety, auditory hallucinations, and the possibility of grand mal seizures. These physical and emotional symptoms may be extremely severe depending on the individual's alcohol abuse history. For this reason alcohol withdrawal, alcohol detox, and alcohol addiction treatment should be done at an authorized treatment center.
