So I will have to drink less to avoid it. But even though I am happy that I got rid of the alcohol, I am still surprised that it is possible not to crave it anymore. Discovering TSM was really one of the most important things that happened to me. I hope to be free soon

It is different for all of us. I never experienced a really bad hangover until starting TSM, and my first hangover/Nal-over made me feel like I needed emergency care. I really thought I was going to die (hot flashes with heart palpitations followed by cold sweats, nausea, diarrhea, anxiety, throbbing head, aches, and more). My first one is what made me come to this forum, for I was afraid that something was wrong and I was also afraid after that nal-over I would stop taking my nal without the support I got here.

I am sorry you had to experience that, and hopefully it will not happen again. Unfortunately nal-overs can happen without rhyme or reason, for I have had one with just 1 1/2 glasses of wine, and other times I have had 1/2 bottle and felt fine. Like Joe said some of us get it from having a few drinks, and others can drink a lot more with no ill effects. I have found that I will rarely have a nal-over if I limit myself to less than 3 glasses of wine, but everyone is different. You may have to play with the amount you drink to find out if it will happen again. Mindful drinking helps, and drinking a lot of water before and in between sips of alcohol helps as well.
You will be with time and compliance! It sounds like you are finding your way in this process, and not craving alcohol is truly amazing!

nal on,

Jaba

Yes, it is amazing. Something that hasn't happened to me for the 20 years of my drinking. I can't wait to get to the point where I just don't want to drink anymore or I can just drink one drink and stop.
