    I'm back!

    I don't know if anyone will even remember me on here. Its been a few months since I've been on the board. I guess I was a bit naive to think I had beat this alcohol problem of mine. To recap my story, I went to my doctor about six months ago to admit my problem and went on Naltrexone. I also did all the supps recommended here and hypno. Had great success, but then decided to try going off of the Naltrexone sometimes... like on vacation so I could ENJOY some wine (not just drink it and not get buzzed). Well, I kept playing around w/it and ended up stopping it all together. And, slowly, but surely, my old bad habits returned.

    Well, at least I know what I need to do. I have to get back on the program entirely... back on Naltrexone EVERY day, back on the supps EVERY day, and hypno EVERY day.

    It puzzles me why I ever let myself go back to my old habits when I was doing so good and feeling so good. This sickness is worse than I thought. At least I don't have to feel hopeless, though. This program does work. I just need to get back to working the program.

    Adagirl, welcome back. Well , from what you have described, you may have fooled yourself into believing that you had a little more control over alcohol (unaided) than it has over you. But, like you say, you know what works, so you should find it easy to get back to that place that felt good for you.

      Hi adagirl, great to have you back, I hadn't met you at the time you were here the first time, but it's encouraging to know that it works.

          welcome back adagirl. I remember you. I have noticed that if I step off MWO for a few days, I start to slack, so I get back on.
          good thing you are ready to go at it again.

          Welcome back

                Hi Adagirl: I also remember you! Welcome back. You had mentioned that you had fallen back to your old habits. Now that you have "tested" yourself, you clearly know you can't drink. It sounds to me you are determined to get back on track. Good for you. Similarly, I had gon AF 30 days, tested myself, then 42 days, tested myself, and finally I'm now 160 days AF (it could be more... I don't count my days anymore). I will not be testing myself because this time I got it in my head. I can't drink period. With determination and constant reminders that you had tried moderating and it did not work, you will hopefully encourage you to stay on track and abstain forever. I wish you the best! -Reenie

                    Hi adagirl,

                    I didn't know you when you were last here because I'm a newbie, but still wanted to say Welcome Back. It's great to have you home.

                      It's good to see you again. I remember your inspiring stories about naltrexone.

                              hey adagirl. im beginning the supplements today. if they dont work, im going af. so how did naltrexone make you feel? if you just took the other supplements did it work or you had to be on the more serious drug naltrexone?
