DG,
Unfortunately, most AA members do not want to hear or learn about new research and medications. One of the things I dislike about AA.
Do not get me wrong. I go to AA. I like AA. I like some of their members.
I find it very helpful to be with a group of people who know my struggle and have dealt with it. I truly do.
I think the 12 steps are a good way of life whether you are an alcoholic or not. It is simply living life with integrity and honesty.
However, it is an organized group and like organized religions, people put blinders on and do not want to grow farther. They have "found the way" and that is the way for everyone.
It is sad but does not negate the concept and many of the people as a whole.
I think RJ's research, as well as others, has been a huge help to us drinkers. We do need special vitamin therapy because we have damaged our bodies and our bodies do not absorb the nutrients it needs. This does affect our mental attitude and our general well-being.
Okay. I digress.
I love the L-Tryptophan. I take is 2 times a day. 500 mg morning and afternoon.
I sleep well, I stay calm and when I skip it, I notice it.
Love,
Cindi
