Can any one tell me the dosage and duration of treatment for porn addiction.i know sertraline and naltrexone are good.but I don't know the duration and dosage.

I stalk you on social media

Shut up

You white people talk as if you people are better than everyone when you people should know no person is better than anyone

I love these testimonials! I don’t feel crazy. It’s been 5 years since this interview. Wondering how she is doing

Thank you - your speech was informative and blessing thank you -- greetings from punta Cana DR

I just took my second one, 50 mg, and I am extremly depressed, nauseous and have a migraine. I'm going to stop and contact my doctor. This is horrible.

To say it doesn't affect mood is bulls***. Check - pcssnowDOTorg, or ncbi.nlm.nihDOTgov. It absolutely improved my mood. Then after 2 months I ran out and didn't have money for a refill(fresh out of rehab). Depression/no motivation for 2 weeks straight and lingering in this 3rd week.

So this gives you the chance to lower the effects of withdrawal by keeping drinking until you slowly stop, not go cold turkey and then anxiety hell afterwards.

Character flaw.

Thanks a lot

Hi Doctor. I've been working in behavioral health for over 10+ years and have remained an alcoholic. I'm a professional and successful, but am struggling myself, even as i'm writing this. I don't know if this is a disease or not, but what I will say is there seems to be an allergy that is absolutely uncontrollable for me to use this substance. There's no family issue, job, or scenario that will deter me. I feel sick and I literally tell my self I won't do it....but I do. Let's pretend there's no such thing as "willpower" with this problem. How would you diagnose it?

Katie and Claudia, thank you both for all you do!!!! You are lifesavers!

Thank you. But you must have three drinks for saying "journey" three times. Sorry.

I will be staring mines today! I’m super excited I want more for my life. I hate the black outs I hate feeling weak and tired in the morning for me! I thank God for giving me the strength and knowledge and to want more for myself

This woman had me glued from the first minute. She is me. I was on Naltrexone, figured, eh, I quit, and now I'm back on it. It's so much better now because I'm more educated about how to approach it. I'll have a glass of wine or a beer, but then I'm done - I don't want to make it 3, 5, 8, whatever! And this time I plan to STAY on it. Thank you both!! Hopefully I lose my love handles too :)

your liver completely replaces it's self over about 7 years, so I think by that time you should be good providing no other problems, alcohol does all your organs though

Baclofen is 1 million times better. Takes more like an hour to kick in but it doesn't "help" withdrawal,it kills it dead. Nothing can touch it. Its actually a muscle relaxer

oh my goodness, this is the best thing I have ever seen to help me with my problem! Thank you!!!!!!

l glutamine is working 4 me, iam sober after taling 1000mg on empty stomach...nothing else worked for me

Amazing video. I had a question (maybe dumb question) since I will be starting TCM tomorrow… if you take the pill thinking that you will be in a situation that you will have a drink, do you HAVE to have a drink? I have been doing so much research and I haven’t seen the answer to that anywhere. If you take the pill and there isn’t alcohol around when you think there might be is that bad? Thanks for all you do Katie

5 years 6 months without any alcohol or smoking of any kind

How is Bill doing today?

I don't understand how I can drink 50-60 drinks a week, but I'm fine if I just stop for a few days. Maybe a little tense the first day, and have craving, but by the second day I feel fine and sleep like a baby. Not drinking tonight, just went to they gym and had a large healthy meal, about to sleep. Starting Naltrexone soon. I have to stop poisoning myself. I am so nervous about it not working, but also nervous that it might work.

😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅watching this while sipping titos because i cant breathe earlier and body shakes

Baloney. Get down on your knees and ask God to remove your alcohol problem.

It makes it like you are not even drinking. It feels like nothing. There is no point in drinking at all. It probably feels the way normal people drink. It's like when you have to sneeze then , it goes away, and you don't sneeze. It's like eating a pancake, but there's no butter or syrup on it.

Librium is the best I've had I had a seizure outside a busstop in England and they prescribed me librium , been sober since

Awesome

A lot of errors. So many errors. It is becoming an issue for us. Otherwise...they are excellent. Great attendance. So its hard to tell whats happening. Plus our work is military related. I kind of dont mind that they get drunk. I smoke myself. But try to focus. I tried asking them if they are ok because i noticed they make a lot of mistakes IN ONE HOUR. But they say yea they are fine. They even laughed. Feels like i should start documenting their errors and have a talk with my boss. Im not the only one who noticed their behavior. I suspect others mentioned their behavior before yet they dont see to fix the problem. Im actually worried more than anything. Feels like they are sick and trying to find help.

Those in the wine trade do not get very far unless they spit. Professional tasters must try and evaluate many wines at a time. They can enjoy the bottle of wine on their time with a meal or while dining at a restaurant. Those with drinking problems are unlikely to succeed in this industry.

you look healthy. That I think is the key!

Replacement of alcohol for alcohol dependence?

Hiya. What happens if I stop taking naltrexone and drinking moderately after 6 months? Does the craving go away forever, or do I just go back as before?

The w/d is horrendous

Short answer yes. Speak for urself if u haven't taken it.

3 years no alcohol and then back to it in two months, liver pain got back, stupid me.

Librium

Gabapentin is highly addictive and has many serious side effects. It is a truly evil drug! Please research this drug fully before taking it.

calling anything like that a disease is a cop out so no i aint buyin that B.S.

there is a saying. You can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink . so you cannot help someone that doesn't want help and that won't help himself herself. so the so called AA meetings to me their only after your money that's it. and it destroys families too . but drinking in moderation i don't have a problem with that. but this non stop drinking all day all night that is what makes drinking alcohol very dangerous especially , drinking and driving because there are no do overs .

well my use to be best friend he started drinking again but guess what, he drank beer one right after another he'd start when he got up from sleep til nighttime and that was all he did for years and now his much drinking is catching up to him and in a very dangerous way and he drinks and drives too and he could actually die this time God forbid. because of that poison and everyday all day drinking and now i have lost my best friend on the count of that drinking so is drinking everyday all day straight and non stop? no other beverage except only beer , he isn't the same man that i fell in love with because it almost costed his legs !!!!! so someone tell me that drinking like that is perfectly safe. you tell me that!!!!!
