Hi Welcome to practo. It is better that you consult in person,  go to a nearby psychiatrist for investigation and treatment,  as most of the time benzodiazepines are required for alcohol related withdrawal symptoms . Thanks and regards.

Hello Mr. It's absolutely fine , if you wish to have video consultation for De-addiction . If your are in mild withdrawal or no withdrawal then actually it's best time to consult online for de-addiction without wasting a minute . The more time you waste after ur last drink ,the chances of withdrawal and it's severity may increase, better get treatment at intial stage.
