    Thanks I did not knew about that. I prefer not to take any medicine (and this one is expensive for 28 pills in my country).

    I use the “Annie Grace Method” which already worked on me. It’s basically convincing your subconscious that alcohol (or whatever you want) sucks and you don’t need it. Once your brain knows that, you don’t think about it and don’t crave for a drink.

    I did it for 6 months then use a shit excuse to get wasted “just that time” with my ex. We celebrated our divorce together by getting shit faced one last time.

    It was in January this year and since then I basically made no effort and all the girls I hooked up with since were hard drinker as well…

    That’s why I’m starting again, I know the “how to”, I just need to not be lazy and work my ass off for that objective. Plus this time I have tons of really good natural sugar free ice tea and I want to trick my brain into doing sport everytime it starts to think about a drink. I’ll end up being an addict at my local boxing club, but that is a good addiction.

      Kombucha sometimes scratches the same itch also

      The issue I have with non-Sinclair is the actual biochemical aspect is never addressed which I would argue is at least as important as all the psychological/psychodynamic aspects. If Grace’s liminal method works for you, thats awesome. Keep that up but just remember there’s options :)
