Psychiatrist 's  Response
Hello,
Thanks for choosing health care magic for posting your query.
I have gone through your question in detail and I can understand what you are going through.
Withdrawal symptoms are frequent after stopping alcohol. There may be insomnia and anxiety symptoms for 3-4 weeks. You may take chlordiazepxide in tapering doses under the supervision of your treating psychiatrist. The tingling sensation may be occurring due to thiamine deficiency which needs to be supplemented.
Hope I am able to answer your concerns.
If you have any further query, I would be glad to help you.

In future if you wish to contact me directly, you can use the below mentioned link:
