Trying to get better

Hello everyone. I was on here a long time ago and went back to drinking extremely heavy. Blacking out and all the other good things that go along with this liquid poison. I recently saw my psychiatrist and am on Naltrexone now. It has helped immensly with my cravings! I saw him on Thursday and we decided to add Campral with it to rewire my brain from the years of alcohol abuse. My pharmacy was out of stock and ordered some for me. I'm hoping it works well like the Naltrexone does. I'll keep you guys up to date with how I'm feeling on the two medications. Talk to everyone later and have a great day!

Welcome back and keep posting. This site was a lifeline for me when I first quit. Grabbed on and didn't let go. It really helped to know I wasn't going through this alone.

Hi Redpatsox. Glad you're on SR. I just started getting sober a little over a month ago (again), but this time have been using Campral 3 x a day to help stay sober. It helps me with cravings, but won't entirely eliminate them. You still have to say no to the AV. But GL!

Welcome redpatsox - maybe posting more regularly here might help too?
