If you have a pill to take and you don't take it, it's not going to work, and that is why you need support and counselling as well, and, most of all, you still need the determination to quit.
Ever wondered if there's more to quitting alcohol than sheer willpower? In this episode of 'The Alcohol Recovery Show', hosts Lewis David and Antonia Ryan tackle a crucial yet often misunderstood aspect of sobriety: medications. They break down the pros and cons of various options, including Naltrexone, Nalmethine, benzodiazepines, Antabuse, and Acamprosate. Lewis and Antonia don't just list medications; they dive into how these can be game-changers when combined with counselling and support systems.
You'll hear real talk about why just popping a pill isn't enough and how a holistic approach can make all the difference. If you're curious about how medications could fit into your recovery plan, or if you're supporting someone on their journey, this episode offers valuable insights and practical advice. Tune in to learn how to integrate medical aids with emotional and community support for a more effective path to sobriety.
