Found this site a few days ago and was blown away, there is hope. My hubbie was told to stop drinking for health reasons last month. I know I need to,I went to AA twice last year and it made me feel yucky, quilty and without hope. I subscribed to this website so got the book today online, and the herb on its way. I ordered the CD's for abstinence. I am happy and scared. I am afraid if I make it and my husband does not it will ruin us. We do have fun when we drink, but too much is not good. Which is not helping is health. What can I do to encourage him and keep my hopes up ? I can't wait until the CD's arrive. I am scared to take the Topamax because of the side effects. So hoping the Z. herb, will help. i already have some milk thistle and L-Glutamine. didn't know they were good for the detox. just hoping this time will work. thanks to all of you, and your support:thanks:

So glad you stopped by!

You are in a good and safe place. It is hard to hit that submit button the first time, but now that's over with. And it's nothing like standing up in front of all those people in the AA meetings! I look forward to getting to know you better. I wish you and your husband all the best.

I had really good luck with the kudzu immediately helping me with the cravings.

You are in a good place here!

Welcome MeowNow!!
I agree with Periwinkle about the Kudzu. I also like the CDs, just need to listen to them more often. It's kind of an exciting time, isnt' it? Good luck!!

Oh, and the other thing, I'm taking 100mg/day of Topamax, and don't experience any side effects, except reduced cravings. Yay!!

Welcome! There's a whole, long, thread about antabuse; several people who are actively posting here these days are using antabuse and they say that it is helping them a lot.... you can find the thread in the forum directory, under "medication" or something similar...

best wishes,
