Breaking Down The Sinclair Method: A Fresh Take on Addiction Recovery

With the Sinclair method is you're still drinking, and so a lot of us- we have years or decades of a type of relationship with alcohol where we're using it as a coping tool, or just to numb out or to black out, or whatever it is, or as a social lubricant or things like that.
What if there was a way to reduce your alcohol cravings without going cold turkey? In this episode of 'Recovery in the Middle Ages', suburban dads Mike and Nat sit down with Katie Lain from Thrive Alcohol Recovery to discuss The Sinclair Method (TSM). This approach, developed by Dr. John Sinclair, uses the medication Naltrexone to block the brain's pleasure receptors triggered by alcohol, allowing people to drink while gradually decreasing their desire for it.
With a success rate nearing 80%, TSM is gaining traction as a more compassionate alternative to traditional 12-step programs. Mike, Nat, and Katie dive into the science behind TSM, share personal stories, and tackle the controversies surrounding this method. They also emphasize the importance of early intervention and making it normal to seek help for alcohol use disorder.
Whether you're exploring new recovery options or supporting someone on their journey, this episode offers valuable insights and a hopeful perspective on addiction recovery.
