August - I will gladly take Campral for the rest of my life. It's just been an amazing thing...despite feeling anxious, depressed, etc. the typical compulsion to drink is gone. I'm still utilizing my support groups and contacts as part of my recovery, but I can't overstate how helpful this medication has been thus far.
I have a multi-day family gathering this week for Thanksgiving, which will include copious amounts of alcohol. On one hand, being surrounding by booze sucks. But on the other, it will be a welcome distraction to travel and ensure my son has a good time. I'm not worried that I will drink, but I have already looked up some local AA meeting in that neighbourhood in case I need to get away.
