    Okay, That Didn't Work

    eight days a week;1293908 wrote: I just spent an hour writing a reply to each and every point that people have made on this thread, but it's not really necessary. So, I'll just say this: TSM doesn't work as advertised. Check out the old posts on TSM (I was there from the start) and it just doesn't add up. Sinclair - where is he? Having supposedly discovered the 'cure for alcoholism' that would have probably won him the Nobel Prize for Science (if he had) he is now off pursuing his own private weight loss clinic using the same med. Doesn't sound particularly world-transforming, does it?

    Eskapa - where is he? Having published the book he too has disappeared. I consulted one of his best friends/colleagues in London. He promised me 100% success rate. After six months, and my life still going down the pan, he started blaming my lack of inner strength - I wasn't paying him ?200 an hour for that when he (and the book) promised me such a great 'cure' rate, effortlessly - just drink as 'you want to' - it's fantasy. Dr Joshua Berkowitz in Harley Street was the doctor - I can only say see him at your own peril.

    Nal works amazingly well for certain people, it seems, like UKBlonde. As her posts on her former (deleted at her own request) profile here show, though, she did not follow TSM as per the book, and she also admitted she is completely atypical in her response to this med (of course though I am very glad indeed it has helped her so dramatically).

    Don't mess around - get on Baclofen alone. If you take two approaches at the same time and improve then you will never know what is working. Nal is also not something to take lightly imo - if you're in any accident ER staff must know no opiate-based painkillers will have an effect (the drug blocks them) or you will be in a whole heap of trouble. It's a scary scenario.
    I guess I am atypical? In so far as emergency rooms, what happens if a person who is taking high dose bacoflen runs out? It isn't pretty. Naltrexone doesn't have the same side effects.

    I guess I could ask the question where is Amieson? He isn't here anymore. Where did he go if he has the answer?

    For each person, I suggest they do their own research and choose for themselves. There are multiple methods to treat this. I suggest to everyone be fully aware of the options out there, find a doctor you are comfortable with and treat this disease and get your life back.

    That's the most important part: becoming free of alcoholism.
    Sinclair Method (50mg naltrexone one hour before drinking)

    Pre TSM 80-90 Units Per Week, No Alc Free Days

    After control: 3-6 units per month, 25+ alcohol free days!

      Hi Bama,
      Is there anyway you can get a prescription for Antabuse? I don't have any experience with any other meds, but I do know that Antabuse has saved my life. And you're right, it does take away the daily inner-battle, it just shuts it down. Keep us posted on how you're doing!
