Does anyone know of a GP that is open to this? I did a bit of research and found a lovely doctor on the beyond blue website but she recommended therapy and gave me a diary to fill out. When i mentioned naltrexone she changed the subject ... argh! I want someone I don't have to convince as I'm quite introverted and intimidated by having to say that I have this problem. Also, I've never heard of ordering prescription drugs over the internet - is this legal?

I don't know if it is legal or not... but basically everybody does it. These drugs
(naltrexone and baclofen as well) aren't "controlled substances" like xanax or
what-have-you as they're not addictive and never used recreationally.

Also note that one of our members (search for a thread with "Big Brother" in
the title) got a prescription for naltrexone and then received a letter saying his driver's
license had been suspended. Of course, that wasn't down where you are, but just the
same, there are a lot of reasons you might not want a prescription for
naltrexone on your record (government, health insurance, who knows).

AJ_ is from Oz. You might want to contact him. You'll find a link to his profile on the Cured list. Good luck and keep posting.
