What Is Alcohol Withdrawl?
When a person drinks heavily and/or for a prolonged period of time, their body chemistry changes. They begin to depend on alcohol for normal functioning, and without it, they do not feel well.
When you stop drinking, the body will start to experience withdrawal, because of this alteration in chemistry. Alcohol’s depressant effect on the brain wears off, and it sends the nervous system into a frenzy.
