Hi there! I contacted my Dr about my drinking and here I am... I was actually prescribed NAL to take daily to help with cravings... but the morning I was going to start it... I was eating my oatmeal so I could take it and I was reading the internet and came across tsm. So I didn't take that pill.... until that night with alcohol... that was 2 weeks ago today. My biggest question for now I'd if its OK to still try to cut back at least during the week while on tsm.... my drinking has affected my life and job so I really need to try not to drink on work nights.... but I binge when I drink ... this will be my first week without AL on wkdays if I get through tonight. I could just have NAL and 1 glass of wine (not my weakness) but.... I'm pumping milk for my baby and NAL isn't OK with that... so currently pumping tues-thurs and rest is NAL+AL (fri-sun). I know... how could I breastfeed and all this but I can't let go yet... I can't add to my guilt either.
Anyways... that's my short story. So glad to be here, I believe this is the most realistic way for me to gain control.

Thanks for.listening

Have you read the book yet? Even just reading this chapter is helpful... I'm pretty sure the entire chapter is available free online somewhere.
