I read My Way Out a couple of years ago. I did the vitamins and amino acids and stopped drinking for about a month. It wasn't too hard. Then I began to think, am I really an alcoholic, and started to drink again.
Here is my situation. I don't drink in the daytime. I don't drink outside of my house. Don't even have an urge. I could go to a bar with a dozen friends, they all could get plastered, and I wouldn't have an urge. To me, that is not my time.
My time is late at night, when my responsibilities are taken care of, the kids are in bed. Then I pull out the Bud Lights and drink (maybe even up to 8-10 cans some nights). That is my time. My relaxation, perhaps my party, time. No where else. I do skip nights, maybe once or twice a week. If I have important things to do the next day, I will skip the beer. But I do miss it.
So I conclude I do have a problem. What to do? So, here I am, in this forum.
I am looking at New Years Day as a starting point. I believe this forum will be a huge asset to my situation.
Has anyone here investigated Faster EFT as a means for addiction control? The results seem remarkable. I will be exploring this.
Another thing that has intrigued me about the MywayOut method is the supplements-- amino acids and vitamins. I know that the protocol has changed a bit since the book was first published. What is the current recommendation?
1000 mg Glutamine (glutamine seems to be the king)
750 mg GABA
3400 mg Amino Complete
750 mg B50
900-3000 mg Kudzu (frankly Kudzu has never done much for me)
5 tablets Calmes Forte???
Is this correct?
What is your opinion about DLPA (I am not sure but I think DLPA worked great for me last time)? or Fish Oil? Any other amino acids or supplements I should be looking at?
