alcoholic liver detox - #20225

Fatima

I am feeling really lost and anxious about what’s going on with my health. A few months ago, I noticed I was feeling super tired all the time and my stomach seemed kinda bloated. I brushed it off for a while, thought it was just stress from work and life stuff – you know how it is. But then, one night I looked in the mirror and I was shocked. My skin was kinda yellowish and my eyes too. I finally went to the doctor, and they told me I might need an alcoholic liver detox. I was like wow, I knew I enjoyed my drinks but didn't realize it could get this bad. They recommended I start an alcoholic liver detox but I have no clue what that even involves. Do I just stop drinking entirely? Should I be doing anything else? I'm nervous about withdrawal symptoms, I'm reading those can be pretty rough. How do I manage that? I want to clear out my system but I have this constant worry about not being able to stick to it. Can someone tell me if an alcoholic liver detox is really as hard as I imagine it to be? What can I do to ease into this detox thing, or is there any support resources I should look into? Just trying to figure this all out before it gets worse!
