I’m not going to write a cheesy review but when I say rethink drink saved me and my career I mean it.
I knew I had been struggling with alcohol abuse for about 9 months before I had the courage to reach out for help. My first experience was with AA where I was told I had to go stone cold sober and have the willpower to never touch alcohol again- simply put, during every meeting all I was thinking was how excited I was to open a bottle of vodka after and I did every time.
A TikTok popped up on my for you page by rethink drink and it spoke about how alcoholism isn’t being addicted to the drink itself but the endorphins released and therefore fighting a hormonal addiction can be treated with medication and not just a mindset. You no longer have to be sober to be a recovered alcoholic.
Drunk, I signed up and it was the best decision I could’ve made. I had my medical evaluation with a qualified GP who specialised in treating alcohol abuse with naltrexone and I discovered I was drinking around 100 units a week.
Being only 18 years old I felt embarrassed and ashamed going into my first coaching session but my coach Steve was so kind and welcoming I instantly felt understood, especially when he shared his experience and how it correlated to mine.
I am now 6 months after my first coaching call and I have gone from 100 units weekly to 30 units and now having the choice whether I want to drink or not.
Not only do I physically look healthier but I am doing so much better in my work, mental health and life in general. (I know that sounded cheesy but I don’t know how else to put it) and I now have the choice whether I want to drink, how much to drink and when to drink all because of a pill and an amazing coach
Thank you Steve and thank you Rethink Drink!!!!!
