Over the past few years I’ve been a heavy drinker. When I stop altogether for a few days I get bags and black patches under my eyes and altogether look like crap. If I start drinking again it all goes away and I look fine.

Is this what happens when the alcohol leaves your body? How long does this last? Is it normal?

Not a rehab center, I’m looking for a free detox program. The person its for has no insurance and no money, so are there any places that have a free detox program?
