Drinking while sick

Yesterday I woke up with a sore throat, nothing serious, just ignored it and drank my usual amount of alcohol through the day.

Today, I woke up fucked up, throat is horrible, fever, body pain and weakness, couldn't eat a thing if I tried, but the worst is that I know my withdrawal is coming soon and I have no idea how to drink in this condition. I'll probably make an effort to stay sober for a couple of days and try to recover but no way in hell I'm not drinking on the weekend

How do you usually deal with a situation like this? No drinking? Drinking less? Drinking normally?
