Hi, I went throught the same thing that you did. I ended going into the hospital and I got detoxed and was there for about 3 days, they gave me valium as a detox drug. This was about 6 months ago, I've went out and drank only a handful of times since then. I have a new boyfriend now and I feel like I can taper down on my meds because I'm really happy and I would never drink alone like how I was before...I've lost about 30 pounds since I quit boozing wine...my meds and thearpy are going wonderful, and I'm in a wonderful realtionship. Go in and detox, then go to meetings or get involved with a group called Rational Recovery. Ask your doctor about Revia, it's a med to help with alcohol cravings after you are done detoxing. Good luck.
