Re: The end of my addiction website
[MENTION=16949]StuckinLA[/MENTION] and [MENTION=22520]nicnak68[/MENTION]...I find that I am frequently unable to access the EOMA site. I was not able to get on just now, but will try again later.
Stuck-congratulations on coming up on almost 17 months AF!:yay: So happy for you!!
nicnak-Great to see you, too. I am also very worried that Ne's addiction has swallowed her up. My emails and texts have gone unanswered as well. :-(

Re: The end of my addiction website
I helped with funding their website, however once it got going it turned into a baclofen discussion and bash any other method, which for me was a big disappointment. I tried getting along for a bit, but had to give up.I used the Sinclair Method to beat my alcoholic drinking.

When I first came to the forum baclofen was being used by only a handful of people around the world and there were simply no other drugs which were showing any real promise. The use of baclofen has shown that for many people it does work.
Within several months of coming to this forum I became alarmed that serious alcoholism was being handled by unqualified people on an internet forum and I sought out doctors for my wife and retained the services of Dr. Chick. He is the doctor who treated Youkaybee and I am the person who recommended him. He told her baclofen was not for her.
I've never once said baclofen is the only way to treat alcoholism. Many people stop drinking without treatment at all. Many stop with psycho-social counselling through AA. Others have found success with Naltrexone.
My point is that using the term "alcoholism" as a diagnostic tool doesn't help people decide what approach is best for them. Baclofen treats an anxiety illness. If you don't have that illness, then you shouldn't take baclofen. If you drink for enjoyment and the euphoria, then take Naltrexone. If you are just a heavy social drinker out of habit, then try to taper off.
It's not very nice to be misrepresented in a way which suggests I hold views which I don't. You almost portray me as an annoying pest. It's a shame that after all these years of thinking you were a friend and understood what I was saying, neither turned out to be true and what you seem to actually be interested in is insulting me publicly. Seriously, it's alarming to me how dismissive you are and how easy it is for you to write me off as just a trivial nuisance.BACLOFENISTA

Olivier Ameisen
In addiction, suppression of symptoms should suppress the disease altogether since addiction is, as he observed, a "symptom-driven disease". Of all "anticraving medications used in animals, only one - baclofen - has the unique property of suppressing the motivation to consume cocaine, heroin, alcohol, nicotine and d-amphetamine"
