Vivitrol

Does anyone have any notable experiences with Vivitrol (naltrexone)?

I started taking 50mg a couple of days ago, and my first dose made me void of every emotion, as if all I knew how to feel was existence itself, as weird as that sounds, lol. With the next few doses, I've felt more normal, but I've noticed my face is slightly numb. I must say that Vivitrol has stopped my drinking dreams, and I don't sit and obsess over the possibility of finding alcohol somewhere. It's been a lifesaver since I'm still in early recovery.

Has anyone else experienced the same effects? Wilder ones? No effects at all?
