To be honest, you might find that you're going to have to shop around and talk to more than one doctor that's going to be open to this because there is, like, a lot of thought out there that it's all or nothing.
With the Sinclair method, it's using naltrexone, which is a drug designed to block the euphoria receptors, might be used for narcotics. The person takes this at least an hour before they drink. They go out and continue drinking. And over time, usually a month to six or eight months that crave for alcohol starts drying up a little bit and, and the euphoria from alcohol doesn't happen. They lose the psychological interest in, the physical interest in drinking alcohol.
