Physical withdrawal from alcohol lasts about a week, but psychologically it may take much longer to get rid of the depression and cravings that come with the detox process. The symptoms of the first couple of days can be very serious,

Alcohol withdrawal can last about a week. This really depends on how much you drink and how often you drink. Each person is different.

. In the first few hours you will likely crave a drink and begin to feel sick. Your blood pressure and heart rate will spike and insomnia is common, which can continue for quite awhile. After 5 days or so, you’ll have been through the worst physically but bear in mind that the psychological withdrawal can be much harder to bear.

Alcohol withdrawal symptoms according to this site can include but are not limited to, tremors fever nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, psychosis, cold sweats, headache, joint pain seizures, heart problems, and even death. withdrawal symptoms usually diminish after about a week, but it is still recommended to undergo detox in a licensed medical facility. As you get through the physical symptoms, many alcoholics are faced with emotional backlash. Alcohol can become a crutch for those who are not able to regulate their own emotions or anxieties. And should probably undergo serious psychological and behavioral therapy as soon as the detox process is finished.
