Gosh...so many posts!! I want to reply to everyone but know if I try I am sure to leave someone out!!

Mary...You should be sooo proud of your accomplishments. I am sorry you are having some tough times with hubby right now...but change is always hard...I am just really proud/impressed with how well you are doing...you go girl!!...PM me if you want some support....I am a great cheerleader, even if I am somewhat of a personal failure Anyway, you are terrific...just remember that always!!


Judie...just can give you my personal experience with meds...for what it is worth. I tried campral, and for me, I couldn't stomach it, but I hear for those that can, if you DONT drink...it does wonders with cravings. I also was on Topa, and for me, initially, I thought I found gold....once I got to 75 mgs...I just lost desire to drink, and my life changed dramatically. I tried to drink (of course, that is what I do) and didn't want more after a glass or two...heaven. Well over time that seemed to go away. Now, about 7 months later, I have found that I can "drink through" the topa, and I am back to my old habits...I have tried to up the topa, but I have come to the conclusion that it really isn't the answer. It helps, but, I think utlimately, I have to be truly commited to being done with this...and I don't think I am...that is the real truth. Anyway, just thought I would share my true thoughts..hope it helps you in this journey.

Yep, I do believe you're right Beth. It is such a "mind" thing... not like anybody's pouring it down my throat... and it's not like I don't know the consequences of my actions...
Just strange how everything can feel so positive and right... for so long. Then BAMM!!

Oh well here we go again...:new:
