Such advice should be given to those<br>attempting to quit drugs and alcohol, not only<br>because withdrawal can be fraught with dangerous<br>fits and hallucinations. The early days clean and<br>sober can seem a frighteningly empty time as well. If<br>DIY recovery was a realistic option, more people<br>would do it.
