SOBA New Jersey Educates Public on The Sobering Truth About Alcohol Detox and Withdrawal

FAIRFIELD, NJ, UNITED STATES, June 20, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Alcohol dependence and addiction affect millions of Americans, yet many who struggle with alcohol use disorder do not realize that detox is a critical and sometimes dangerous first step toward recovery. SOBA New Jersey Drug & Alcohol Rehab is committed to educating the community about the complexities of alcohol withdrawal and the importance of medically supervised detox.

Understanding Alcohol Addiction and Withdrawal
Alcoholism, or alcohol use disorder, is a serious disease that impacts the mind and body. Recognizing alcohol abuse is a courageous first step toward recovery. Many people mistakenly believe quitting “cold turkey” is the safest approach. However, abrupt cessation in chronic drinkers can cause severe, potentially life-threatening complications.

A recent article in USA Today emphasizes that hundreds of Americans die each year from complications related to alcohol withdrawal. SOBA New Jersey stresses that safe, medically supervised detox is essential for successful recovery.

Alcohol Withdrawal Symptoms to Watch For
Withdrawal symptoms can begin 6 to 24 hours after the last drink and often mimic a severe hangover, but they are more intense and dangerous. Symptoms include:
Anxiety, mood swings, and agitation
Insomnia and sleep disturbances
Heart palpitations and irregular heart rate
Fever and elevated body temperature
High blood pressure and excessive sweating
Abdominal pain
Confusion, disorientation, delirium, and hallucinations

Can Alcohol Withdrawal Be Fatal?
Yes. Severe withdrawal symptoms such as uncontrolled vomiting, seizures, dangerously high heart rate and blood pressure, delirium tremens (DT’s), hallucinations, and dehydration can be fatal without proper medical care. This is why detox under professional supervision is crucial.
