Alcohol Treatment – Do I Need a Detox?
There are different types of detox
If you are dependent on alcohol then stopping drinking suddenly can be very dangerous and
you should not do it without medical supervision.
Drinkbreak on its own is probably not the right approach for you right now
and you should wait until the detox has been completed.
One way to know if you are dependent is if you have to have a drink to stop yourself shaking or craving alcohol. If you are dependent you must see your doctor before trying to stop. However, most people can stop or reduce their drinking without medical supervision. There is more information in Drinkbreak.
If you are not dependent on alcohol then you won’t necessarily need a medically supervised detox and,
in fact, reduced drinking can be an important part of a general health detox – just make sure you are adopting a sensible approach.
