I have been drinking for years, first just socially, but was in denial about how the last few years have become out of control. I was always the one who drank just a little too much or had too much fun. I couldn't see life with out alcohol. I used to be able to stop for weeks at a time and not miss it, but it the last two years that has changed. I was drinking by myself, even worknights, and when I drink I binge. I went to my doctor yesterday and told her what I was going through, and that I wanted to quit but seemed unable to do so alone, that my recent attempts were actually backfiring and I'd end up drinking more. I had wanted to do that for years, but could never get the nerve up to tell her the truth. She has put me on Antibuse and I started it today, along with some anti-depressant therapy and set me up to see a counseler/psychologist. She told me that my first step was recognizing my problem and asking for help.
So, I wanted to know if anyone else out there has tried Antibuse, and what they thought of it. I know if i try to drink I will have a nasty reaction, but does it help with the cravings? I'm ordering some kudzu tonite from the site, as no health store in my area seems to carry it.
Wish me luck, I am a wife, mother, work full time at a busy medical clinic and volunteer for the high school. I need this to work.
