alcoholic wanting to know what to expect when I quit drinking?

Question by CrashX13: alcoholic wanting to know what to expect when I quit drinking?
I’ve been drinking at least a mickey of hard alcohol 5 to 6 nights a week for the past 5 years, but I plan on quitting drinking. I’m wondering if I quit cold turkey, would I have drank enough to worry about getting DTs, hallucinations and possibly even dying from the sudden lack of alcohol? Would it be better to taper it off by having less each night and/or drinking less days during the week?
