I have known people who have used this successfully, but some who play games with themselves and try to use it only when they want to. That won't work! Hehe. It will make you hurl, from what I heard, if you try to drink.

I have 2 days of sobriety and counting. I am working on the book and going to online meetings. This time I feel different and I feel strong. I am doing this first for myself and then whoever else that matters. I am not overconfident but I am sure that if I stop drinking; I will lose weight (health), I will gain monetary things (wealth), and most importantly I will gain my son's respect...Please keep in touch, your words are encouraging. Thx Sylvia

My fiancee and I split up for a couple of weeks and I fell off the wagon. We are back together and I am going to continue on with my efforts to stop drinking. I can only keep trying, because when you stop trying, you will never stop drinking.... Keep in touch and let me know how things are going. :D

At 10:07am on April 28, 2008, sylvia said…: Thanx for your support and I will try and find out why it has been discontinued. Please keep me posted on how it works for you...

At 3:38pm on April 25, 2008, sylvia said…: I don't think my last message went thru...Anyway I went to my doctor's office today all eager and excited about the antiabuse pill and then I was sorrily disapointed to find out that in Vancouver, BC Canada they have discontinued the pill. I can no longer get it. But I wish you all the luck and do keep me posted.
