It’s been a month for me, I’ve only had a few difficult temptations but they passed quickly. One thing that really helps is listening to the stories of others. Thank you for sharing your story I appreciate it.

It's been 4 months so far. It affected my work to the point the I would come to work drunk & I started to say things that I shouldn't say & almost got FIRED.I then gave up Beer & Soda at the same time. My work improved, & My attitude to people improved. My boss she loves my work & I never want to go back to drinking. I am 2 years from retirement. I don't want to screw up my NY pension because I can't live in NY on Social Security alone.

I've been using naltrexone under a doctors supervision for 3 months. I've drank for decades. After six weeks, i quit drinking entirely. Giving me permission to drink doesn't work because I'll drink. A lot. Not drinking and using the drug is working for me. I needed to change my schedule around a bit to fill in some times I used to drink. Today is 41 days, and I'm doing OK. I have no desire to drink again.

Going on 3yrs in December Katie. You have played such a huge role in my recovery with TSM. You are my Angel! Thank you❤️

Congratulations Katie! Keep putting the word out there. It was your story that got me to tell my daughter about the Sinclair method. She took it for about a year but didn't stop drinking and then suddenly quit cold turkey. It's been almost two years now. I can see her life changing, her attitude changing. You are right that it doesn't happen overnight but she doesn't seem to have the desire anymore.

I done same 44yrs old, now suffer from, cronic pancreatias, splenic thrombosis, blood clots from drinking 18 ciders a day, I QUIT, QUITING, PAY THE PRICE, WITH YOUR LIFE, HOPE THIS HELPS YOU AND YOUR LIFE

I drank alcohol every single day for at least 15 years and abused it. I quit cold turkey and had no side effects at all and I am surprised but very grateful. I had no ill affects. No way could I cut down it’s all or nothing. Slowly, I am noticing changes in my body that are positive, because the alcohol rooms the body to shit inside and out! It’s gradual so I didn’t even notice until I noticed and then once I did, it was obvious

I just like to say I am going on 6 years sober and loving every minute of it is a great feeling no hangovers life could be better I have a great Hobby building a model railway in the loft keeps my mind very positive so good luck to all the people who have started being Sober Bill

It is a great feeling I can tell a very positive attitude keep going all of you Bill

yay! i am making my 6 year video. started with a month. it is amazing. love hearing your story

I don't always chime in on the comments with these videos, but wanted to drop a line and say that I never miss a single one of them. Your channel and information has really been quite educational for me in a lot of ways. Congrats on your 3.5 years away from the booze.

Great video Katie ❣️

So happy for you, well done.

Thank You! Very good presentation!

Great job Katie congratulations! I am now 2 1/2 years alcohol free best thing I ever did.

Congrats! You inspire me. I’m on the process. Such pain involved. But I won’t give up! Thank you 😘

Love ya girl! I found you from TikTok 🥰

I used to blame my partner often for bringing alcohol into our home until I realized the problem was more about me and my decisions related to my sobriety rather than her. I struggled with getting sober again and looked for any other solution other than locking myself away to get through the physical part. SM was something I was interested in but in that mindset I didn’t have the capacity to consistently take the pill. Cleaning up some things from the past once I was able to think straight (which took awhile) was also important for me. Thanks for putting this out there because people are dying daily from alcohol and any tools or medications should be made more accessible and mainstream rather than hanging on to old beliefs regarding alcohol treatment 👍

Congratulations Katie! That's awesome! I really want to start naltrexone, I've been having a bit of a hard time getting the medication. Have you noticed any long term side effects at all from taking it?
