new to this..
hey all, I'm not sure what I would write here.
I'm new to this forum, taking my first steps to recover from alcoholism that has so far ruined my life. I'm sick of having no money, no friends, constant guilt over my actions, and no control over my behavior. this has to stop, now, but I simply have no support system. my parents are not exactly forgiving or understanding and I've ruined any other support network I might have had around me, so I figured reaching out to others who have gone through this might put me in a better situation to move forward.
my psychiatrist is putting me on naltrexone starting tomorrow. does anyone have any experience with this medication? I'm skeptical of how it will work and worried about the side effects.
