I don't think there is any such procedure. Where do you stay? Are there any alcohol rehab clinics in your area? If you feel that you can't do this alone, then maybe you should take external help. You could try joining a rehab clinic if that's possible.

Completely agree with @Dagmara, this seems a bit of a drastic measure to come off alcohol, I doubt it’s permissible, surely a rehab unit or AA (and others) is more suitable, after all, stopping / controlling your drinking is not the problem, it’s staying stopped or in control.

Not what you're looking for?
