I did taper off alcohol once successfully, but I stuck to beer while I was doing it. Started out with 4 a day with a few hours between. Then less and less. I remained AF for 4 days. Just don't fool yourself into thinking that you have it under control because you did it. That's what I did. I was wrong. If you're doing it for detox, in an attempt to quit, I wish you all the best and God speed. Don't get frightened if you get the shakes a little. Cause you will. Give it a few hours. You'll still be shaking between beers, but I didn't experience halucinations or anything more sevier than heavy shaking. If you feel you need to start with more than 4, then that's your call. But that's what I did. If you haven't already, I would advise you to go to your family doc and get some blood tests just for your own peace of mind.
God bless and stay strong.
P.S.
Using the chat room helps a lot as well. Keeps your mind off of the booze and get some great first hand advice.
