Anyone know how much and for how long you have to drink to start getting alcohol WD symptoms?

Right away. A hangover is pretty much detox. There are three stages of major detox. The last is dangerous for up to 5% of drinkers. DT's can be deadly if seizures occur.
As long as you are not drinking a 30 pack a day it's doable.
At the moment I want a drink. Woke up early as fuck because I drank last night and for god knows how many nights before since my b day. I think there has been a few nights of just 1 or 2 beers. Then I finished up two liters of rum that I got almost 3 weeks ago and bought another 18 pack.
The curse of having booze in the house and a drive thru 3 minute walk away.

Some people cannot moderate their intake.
I figure 8 beers a day is a lot. Throw in days of shots or something and sometimes I drink more.
Just figure how many calories you ingest from alcohol. The detox makes me hungry because I associate the bad feeling with wanting calories.
Addiction sucks. You think you feel good enough to use again. Thinking well the detox isn't so bad maybe I can use again.

it takes a pretty long time to be a full on addict. Like you have to really try. But once you start getting shakes and seizures its a bit to late...

Ya you gotta actually not give a shit about anything else. Only 5% of the drinkers get seizures from alcohol detox. Most people don't spend $500 a month of cheap booze to stay drunk all the time.

Hangovers aren't serious alcohol WD. A hangover is standard alcohol WD.
To get serious WD you need to have relied upon alcohol for a prolonged period of time. It will depend on various factors,including, age, gender, body weight and the amount of alcohol consumed. It's hard to say how long taking these variables into account. But I would say that it can occur as soon as after a week of continuous abuse, and definitely after a month of consistent every day abuse.
