My great uncle went cold turkey by mistake (he moved into a care home, no-one was aware of just how much he had been drinking beforehand). The sudden change did huge damage, he never recovered from it

Some of the more successful treatment programmes focus on fixing/improving other life problems before addressing the specific substance addiction. And right now a lot of people will have even heavier "other problem" burdens than usual.

I work with/review medical records all day for my job & sudden onset alcoholic withdrawal is no fucking joke. Seizures, delirium tremens, hallucinations, uncontrollable vomiting w/ electrolyte imbalance, rhabdomyolysis (body literally eating muscle tissue)... it can be lethal.
