Smile Hi. I'm new here.

Hi. I'm Daisey. This coming Tuesday will be three weeks sober for me. I am taking Antabuse as a deterent. It is working well this go around. I have not really craved alcohol much at all. At one month sober, my Dr. wants me to try Naltrexone. I am a little nervous about another drug. I found this web-site, while trying to find out if fatigue and being lethargic were normal after stopping alcohol. I believe that question has been answered. Thank you! Glad to know its, (I'm), normal. Looking forward to learning more about this web-site and getting and giving motivation to live a sober life. Thanks all!

Naltrexone does wonders for me personally. No side effects at all. Good luck with it.

Hello Daisey,

Naltrexone works wonderfully for me as well.

Welcome daisy and thankGod! Glad you are here :0) I'm still pretty new, but I'm already feeling at home. One thing is for sure, you'll never get bored! There is so much interesting stuff and people. Very helpful and supportive. I have been looking into Naltrexone, I really want to try it. Gotta get a doctor first though. Congrats on the sober days too!
