I started my Naltrexone yesterday. I took 25mg an hour before "cocktail hour" as prescribed. I had a glass of wine that I sipped on for about 3 hours and then made a crown and coke (which usually leads to 4 or 5). The drink took about an hour to finish and I just went to bed...
I actually remember going to bed AND don't feel that usual cloudy morning feeling...I'm off to a hopeful start! Can't tell you the last time I remember going to bed! Very excited!!!
Yes!!! This is amazing. Keep 👏 it 👏 up👏 @platinum_band68
Thank you! So much energy today and got so much done already...Looking forward to another memorable night tonight :)
Awesome! Isn't it weird/amazing to wake up with the previous night's memories intact? Big changes!
Yes! Two nights in a row now...I'm so excited!
Would just LOVE to report that last night was night 5 that I went to bed early and remember it!!! I have had one drink a night...(one night I had two) but one then watch some tv and go to bed...unheard of!~!!.
I am so confused why I have never heard of Naltrexone before this...it is changing my life - I wish I knew about it 5 years ago. I have one night left of 25 mg then go to 50 mg. Fingers still crossed but very optimistic :)
Awesome update! I've had a couple of setbacks (weekend nights are going to need some additional attention/effort) but overall am drinking signifigantly less than I was 2 weeks ago. Waking up groggy is a great reminder for why I'm cutting back, so trying not to view those as failures.
"Significantly less" is a triumph!!! Congratulations!
I had my boyfriends parents for lunch today and as we usually do, his mom started the wine at 10:30...I decided not to have any and am so glad right now - I would have drank wine all afternoon and would be feeling very crappy right now!
Baby steps - let's celebrate our accomplishments - proud of us!!!
