Drinking problem

Hello, i am a college student and i have been drinking a lot lately. I was drinking and vaping together. I threw away the liquor bottle yesterday because I realized how much I had been out of touch with the world and my grades. I really do want to quit. I was also watching videos on YouTube and Tiktok to see how people quit but the amount of years people say they have been drinking I really scary and I don’t want to be dependent on alcohol anymore. I also just saw on YouTube that people have seizures and die from going cold turkey. Please help…
