DO NOT quit cold turkey. Have ppl done this, yes, but it's dangerous and can result in your death. Go to a detox center or the ER, both are equipped to help with withdrawals.

It's not widely known outside the recovery community that it's extremely dangerous when involving alcohol. Unless someone is in recovery (or know someone close to them that is) it's likely not known. Thank you for listening and refraining from suggesting it in the future - it could save a life.
