I come in here often but forget to post in my own thread.

Anyway TSM continues to impress. Mostly my wine tastes horrible. Last weekend I had about 15 units I think. Im not keeping a very close eye, mostly because Im quite happy with the way I drink now.I get buzzed but not drunk, I remember everything, I dont fall down, I dont wake for a couple of hours full of guilt in the middle of the night, I no longer get hangovers. Sometimes the cravings are higher that others but Im still less than 3 months into the treatment..

Last night even though I dont normally drink during the week I had a craving so I had two pear ciders that were in the fridge and I still wanted more, this didnt upset me, I just went and got a bottle of wine and had two glasses of it. I enjoyed it and still went to bed sober but a bit tidly. I felt fine this morning. I am meeting a friend this evening for a few drinks so my units will definatly be up this week but again I view it as part of the treatment. I trust nal and will go where it takes me. Hopefully to a cure, actually Im pretty certain it will be to a cure :)

That's great to hear! You're another one of the inspirations I've found on this board.

Home from my night out, had three glasses of wine, quarter bottles over three hours. Whats still amazing to me is that even though I would have drank another one I still left the pub and was happy doing so. Before nal I would have made sure I had some at home waiting or I just simply wouldnt have left at all. This is a whole new lease of life and I still cant fully believe its happening. I spent so many, many years worrying about my alcoholism and now its like this massive boulder has been removed. How do we thank Sinclair? How do you thank someone who has mad such a difference to ones life?

Thats great Mario :D I personally think if we find success with TSM and want to show our gratitude we can do so by passing this onto people whom we come across in our lives, or whom we know already, that would also benefit from TSM. You yourself Mario know what this struggle with alcohol involves and imagine saving someone this heartache... Pay It Forward xxx

I also cannot put into words how grateful I am to Dr. Sinclair. "Saving my life" sounds like a cliche, but it's accurate. How do you express gratitude to someone who pulls you out of the path of an oncoming truck?

Is it possible that naltrexone affects the sence of smell. Im being driven demented. Twice in the past week Ive had to get up at night to have a shower because the smell of perfume or body lotions is just driving me crazy. If I cook something strong I can still smell it in the kitchen the day after. Im not going to quit nal because of it though :lol: but I would be interested in knowing if Im the only one.
