alcohol dependence
"I am a professional woman with a wonderful family and amazing career in the health sciences field but I have struggled  for years with alcohol (more than 20 years in fact).  I always convinced myself I could drink 1-2 glasses and then would finish up somewhere beyond 8.  I missed work and family gatherings due to hangovers.  I have tried so many different therapies but the only one that has worked is Naltrexone.  I started only 5 days ago and the nagging ache and desire to drink is gone.  I can't believe it.  Please done hesitate to see your Dr and talk about it.  I just didn't know I could feel like this and I am hopeful it will last.  I wish you well in your search for recovery."
