What to try??

[freelife]

I have tried Campral and Antabuse....either they make me "crazy" emotional or cause nausea and vomiting. After thinking it was just a "habit" I realized while on Antabuse I truly do crave it. I have 2 strong drinks each night and never more but I know it is a problem because I try to stop and can't. I don't want the 2 to become 3 or more or start earlier in the day. I am looking into Naltrexone to help with the cravings. Any thoughts? Obviously my body doesn't like "drugs" but I need something to help with these cravings.
Thanks for any help.

I have had great success on the Sinclaire Method with naltrexone. I have a ways to go but feel like it's been nothing short of a miracle for me. The side effects I had in the begining was some crazy insomnia - the worst of my life but that went away in a week. I have tinnitus - years of playing in bands - so when I take naltrexone the "ringing" gets louder and last for 24 hrs or so. I have had tinnitus since my early 20's I am 42 so I am used to it. These things are a small price to pay to tame and kill the beast called alcohol.

I suggest you spend some time reading the Baclofen threads on this forum, if you haven't already. And if you have more questions, just post them!
