I’ve never been physically dependent on alcohol, but my relationship with it was destructive. I would go 2, 3, even 4 months sober, but then out of nowhere, I’d end up on a 4-day bender, leaving a trail of damage in my wake. Then I’d pick myself up, go sober again for a few weeks, only to crash back into another 3 day session. It was chaotic, exhausting, and I knew I was on the edge of doing serious harm to myself or someone else.

When I found the Sinclair Method, most people asked me, "Why don’t you just stop drinking?" A fair question, but I knew deep down that simply quitting wasn’t enough. I needed to fix my brain chemistry. The thought of walking on egg shells for the rest of my life, petrified of having a social pint just wasn't something I was willing to accept.

Enter Naltrexone. And honestly, it worked instantly.

I could go out, enjoy a couple of drinks, and still get that buzz most of us seek, but without losing control. It was like the monster had been caged. I became hyper-aware of my choices. When everyone else carried on drinking, I simply called it a night. People were stunned. Even more surreal, I took a tablet the next evening, bought four bottles of cider, and didn’t even open them. They’re still in the fridge.

I can’t speak for those with serious alcohol dependence, but if you’re like me, sober for weeks, then an absolute nightmare on a bender, please, please give this a try. It might just save your sanity, or even your life.
