Question

Alcohol withdrawal symptoms are as follows, EXCEPT

The correct answer is

Euphoria

The correct answer is Euphoria.

Alcohol withdrawal begins 6 to 24 hours after the last drink with tremor, anxiety, insomnia, sweating, nausea and tachycardia; hallucinations (alcoholic hallucinosis), seizures and delirium tremens may follow.

Euphoria is a feature of alcohol intoxication, not withdrawal; withdrawal produces dysphoria and irritability.

Short trick: Intoxication = euphoria; withdrawal = the opposite (tremor, anxiety).
