At this point, drink when you crave a drink, but you only need one drink after you take the pill to make the extinction work. If you don't feel like a 2nd drink, don't drink it.

Hi Lilavi
I would think that if you are a binge drinker, you could take 50mg on the days you typically expect to binge, e.g., weekends. You don't have to take it every day for it to work, you just have to be sure to take it 1 hour before you drink. So, even if you decide to have a glass of wine on a non-binge day, just take the pill an hour or so before you do.

Hi guys. I am a bit worried about my drinking habits because I usually drink a lot and get drunk. Shouldn't it be the opposite way - drinking less and less?

Have you been keeping a diary of how much you drink? That's a very good tool that will help you along.

With TSM, you can expect your numbers to jump around quite a bit. This seems to be especially true for bingers. Are you still blacking out?

I just began to keep a diary. What does a blacking out mean?

It's when you drink so much that you forget how much you had or what you did after a certain point. Maybe that wasn't a problem for you, but I thought you had mentioned that it was before you started TSM.

Well, I do actually sometimes, so should I be worried?

Generally, you should see the blackouts decreasing.

How many times a week are you drinking? Are you generally drinking less per day than when you started TSM?

What other meds are you taking these days?
