For what's it worth I started Nal 7 months ago in desparation. Couldn't stop drinking, couldn't control the cravings. Check earlier posts for history, but always loved drinking, though it didn't always love me!
I haven't stopped drinking since I started Nal, but I never drink without it. I still love drinking, but it doesn't control me, I control it. that wasn't possible without Nal.
I can drink with less hangovers, no blackouts! I said no blackouts! It does not obess me any more, the reason I haven't posted for so long is that I can take it or leave it. I never bothered with the counting and cravings charts etc. as the more you focus on something it seems the larger it becomes. I had faith, took Nal and lived!
I don't drink half as much and if I want I can go out without drinking, it just doesn't seem important any more. If I want to drink I do and just take Nal an hour before and enjoy it.
I guess I posted again after all this time to say to all starting out, you might not stop altogether, but you will deffo see changes and therein lies hope.

:)
