10 Months In: I only Drink 3 Times A Week

Well it's been 10 months and 15 days since I started the Sinclair Method. The last time I checked in was over 5 months ago. I am sorry I started a new career and I have been really busy. Since the last time I wrote I have had significant changes.

I haven't drank whiskey since December 31st! I've drank beer maybe 6 times at the most. To be honest I don't even feel like drinking anymore. Most of the time I find myself drinking out of boredom rather than addiction. Which is actually a great thing.

I can't remember the last time I got up and started drinking. When I do drink I don't get out of control anymore but I do drink more than I should though. Being a big guy I can put down a lot of alcohol without being drunk though.

5 Months and 5 Days: More And More Alcohol Free Days

Well its 5 months and 5 days in and I am seeing major improvements. Every week I am seeing alcohol free days. This week so far (it's Thursday), I 've had 3 alcohol free days! Before I started this program I drank 7 days a week, most of the time it was a fifth or more a day so that is big change. So I am seeing the cure ahead although I don't think I am there yet. Even though I don't drink as much I still drink more than I should I think. So if your wanting to quit drinking or at least slow down drinking I would start the Sinclair Method as soon as you can.

4 Months and 25 Days In....Major Progress!

Well I am in my fifth month of the Sinclair Method and I got major progress since the last time I wrote. I don't know what happened exactly but all the sudden my desire for the drink has drastically changed. I have had 4 days of alcohol free this week and three the week before! I will admit I did get shit tanked Monday night but 4 alcohol free days for an alcoholic is big news. I feel that I am finally regaining control of my life again and I didn't have to go to rehab or  A.A. All I have to do is take a little pill an hour before I drink. I am starting to believe I have found the cure for my alcoholism.

4 Months Into The Sinclair Method

Well guys I am 4 months into The Sinclair Method today. I actually went back and read my first post, I have made some changes although I still drink way more then a non addicted person would. Last night I drank half a liter of Jager which isn't normal for me to be honest anymore. Although for the most part I remember going to bed at night now and I don't drink in the mornings anymore. I feel better mentally then I have in long time too. So things are getting better. I know I couldn't drink a fifth of whisky no more like I used to at least the 80 proof stuff Jager has less alcohol  then whiskey(if your reading this you probably already know that :)  ) I do take the pill everyday and I do have alcohol free days but not often. I know when I went out with the fellas to Philadelphia  couple weeks ago they was laughing about me drinking a whole fifth of Jack Daniels and passing out. The funny part is I bought some beer at the show (probably about 8) and I bought two pints of Jack at the hotel and I didn't even finish the first one! So I know there is improvements I just hope they keep going in the the right direction. Thanks for following!

94 Days IN....Not Independent Yet But Getting There

Well July 4th makes 94 days for me...The Sinclair Method is supposed to be in full force by the 4th month and I gotta say I am not drinking that much right now..  Actually last Friday I took the night off the next night I got pretty loaded but after that I've not even got drunk maybe a buzz but I've cut my drinking in half since I've first started so that is a good thing. The other good thing is I didn't spend $30,000 on rehab to slow down and I didn't need to go to a meeting. So I didn't embarrass myself or my family. I know I am not cured yet though. The thought of drinking still consumes me but when I do drink it's not the same thoughts or feelings I had before I started drinking so I don't nearly drink as much. I can't wait to wake up and no longer think how I am gonna get a drink tonight. I am getting there slowly...Like they say Rome wasn't build in a night...

Drinking Today But Not As Bad

I am drinking right now..I thought it would be a good ideal not to paint a picture of "I am not addicted no more and I am cured" . I am still drinking the only difference is I am "trying to drink" right now. I don't really want to drink but my mind doesn't want to stop. So I continue to fight...I know it sounds crazy but I continue to take meds and drink ...I know what drinking is doing to me, I hate what it does to me, but  I continue to do it...although I do feel like I am getting better. I know sounds crazy but thought I should post....I forgot to take nal an hour before but I still took an hour after I started drinking...
