Well if you woke up on the third day, you would no longer be in a coma ;p. All joking aside I can tell you we are all different and all of our bodies handle it different. I work on a lot of job sites and I communicate with dozens of carpenters, contractors, plumbers, etc. daily and one common conversation piece is those of us that have quit drinking after years of abuse and let me tell ya every story I hear is different. They range from a scale of 1-10 legitimately. But my experience was this, I drank most every single day for 15 consecutive years outside of incarceration and a couple feeble attempts hear and there when I would go 24 hours and be right back too it. When I quit cold turkey I did it completely of my own volition, and I didn’t have so much as a headache physically. Nothing. I had the strangest dreams on planet earth for about 3 months I suppose but that was it. What I am saying is is that until you try you really won’t know but you should try. You know your body, just be vigilant and pay attention to how you’re feeling. If it’s too much seek medical intervention until you can be on your own and begin this very arduous but rewarding journey. Best of luck OP!
