Does anyone here have any experience with alcohol withdrawal?

I went cold turkey last week and felt great then started to get bad insomnia, plus I read it's better to taper off than go cold turkey. Anyone have any experiences to recount? thanks, Fee1

Re: Does anyone here have any experience with alcohol withdrawal?

Insomnia is par for the course @Fee1 same as upset stomach etc yes tapering works but stops withdrawal process if that’s the object. You’ll find lots of time you didn’t know you had as well possibly. Hot baths. Light meals often snacks sweets lots water walking also helps

Thanks @ TAB for your reply. Yeah am slowly cutting down and the insomnia is improving? Do you have experience with giving up alcohol? regards, F
