Alcohol Withdrawal and Seizures
    #19287969 - 12/17/13 10:45 AM (10 years, 1 month ago)

I recently heard of a family member's alcoholism coming to light when he was hospitalized for seizures.

I'm trying to figure out how bad a shape the kid's in without asking uncomfortable questions. Are seizures related to alcohol withdrawal the same as delirium tremens, or are they distinct? If there is a difference, is it one of degree or one of kind? Do seizures necessarily mean that one had been a really far-gone alcoholic, or can they occur even with moderate cases of alcoholism.

Thanks in advance for any info you can relate.

You're just labeling at this point.

The fact is you have a family member that needs help.
Be there for them and keep them honest.

Alcoholism is a sick circle/disease if left untreated.
Be part of the treatment.

I haven't talked to the guy for perhaps ten years, and he lives thousands of miles away. We have never been close. We have never even ever had anything in common, mostly owing to a sig. age difference growing up.

He's in AA now, which is good news. He also lives in the same town as some family he's very close to, and his parents aren't far.
