When someone tries to suddenly stop using alcohol after a prolonged period of excessive use or dependency, they’ll most likely experience alcohol withdrawal. Depending on the individual’s consumption history, alcohol withdrawal symptoms can vary in their severity and length. For some people, symptoms are mild to moderate, while for others, they can be painful and even life-threatening.
Common symptoms of withdrawal include:
When someone suddenly stops or decreases the regular dosage of a drug they’ve been taking, they’ll most likely experience a set of symptoms called withdrawal. These withdrawal symptoms can be both physical and/or psychological, depending on the drug/s being consumed.
Withdrawal is NOT the same for everyone. Some factors that contribute to when withdrawal starts, how severe it is, and how long symptoms last, are:
How long the person has been using the drug/s
Which drug/s were used
How much was being used each time
The length of time between usages
The signs and symptoms of withdrawal vary greatly from one drug to the next. Withdrawal from some drugs like benzodiazepines, opioids, and alcohol are notoriously painful and in some cases life threatening. General drug withdrawal symptoms may include: Shakiness, loss of appetite, nausea, insomnia, anxiety, sweating, headaches, irritability and depression, these symptoms can vary in intensity based on the level and length of the addiction.
