That's good. I'm happy you've become clean, those two are at least not terribly addictive. I'd honestly rather see marijuana legal over alcohol.

My friend couldn't get off heroin. You wonder if you could have done more, but...you know how it is.

Is it true alcohol withdrawal can kill you? Serious question.

It's been a while since I took any toxicology, but I seem to remember that systems in your body don't get dependent on it to operate, like say a blood pressure medication or something, it's just the pure physical shock from stopping it right away that can kill you.

So, technically, yes. You can die from stopping suddenly, even if the mechanism is somewhat different.
