Hello all I have read the book and have my supply of nal. I am so hopeful that this will work for me as I really want to save my marriage and my sanity. I currently binge about every 4 days drinking around 12-16 units. I am so exhausted at obsessing about drinking , giving in and having the eventual fight w/my husband. I think that life is worth living without stupid fights,remorse, and injury. :oops: I am thankful to have found this method, and cannot wait to start!

Hi and welcome

Ive only just started this weekend so am keeping my fingers crossed. So far the side effects are not too bad and it definatly had a possitive influence on my drinking this weekend.

Read around the board there is a huge amount of great information.

RTG,

Your pattern is one for which TSM has a very high success rate. You have every reason to be optimistic. Stay the course, and as Mario says keep reading. For example, see Hawkeye's recent post in Weekly Progress.

Keep us posted. Good luck!

RTG -- welcome. There may be side effects (search that term on the site for ample discussion) but they go away after a week or so for almost everyone. Take 25 mg the first time and see how your body reacts before going to 50 mg.

My best,

Nick
