I have been a heavy heavy daily wine…
I have been a heavy heavy daily wine drinker for close to 20 years. A bottle plus every day. I wasn’t a sloppy drunk. I raised 2 kids I have a great management job. I never missed a day of work due to my drinking. It just became 430 and I needed a glass of wine after work, to make dinner, before taking my kids to practice, just one before that concert, stiff like that. Well now I’ve had enough. I don’t want to so it anymore. But I couldn’t stop. I wanted too badly but the wine just kept calling me. I tried naltrexone a few years ago prescribed by my PCP. That time it did nothing for me. I don’t remember the dose. Maybe it wasn’t enough or maybe I wasn’t really ready. But this time I’ve been 13 days. No urges not even really thinking about wanting wine but the fact that it’s here in my house and I’m able to not touch it. It helps knowing that even if I had it I know this medication will block the buzz I came addicted to so what’s the point. I’m happy with how well I’m doing! Thank you Oar!
