Alcohol Dependence
"Perhaps most here are taking Naltrexone every day and then trying to not drink alcohol? I have not tried that.

I take Naltrexone only on days I have a strong craving and then take it 1 hour before I drink the alcohol. (See Sinclair Method, Amazon&rsquo;s The Cure for Alcoholism - 80% success, no need for detox.) After 2 months (drinking only on 18 days) my irrational craving for alcohol has been virtually extinguished. If I ever drink again, I will take the Naltrexone an hour before. 

No counselling, no AA meetings, nothing like that. All I needed to stop drinking (1 &frac12; to 2 bottles of wine a night for the last decade) was will-power to take the Naltrexone an hour before drinking - which was easy for me. Good luck!"
