2 Boxes of Wine a Week to 1 Glass of Wine a Year: Ashton’s Naltrexone & Sinclair Method Story
from Thrive Alcohol Recovery · host Thrive Alcohol Recovery
Ashton shares his transformative journey from heavy drinking to a balanced relationship with alcohol using the Sinclair Method and Naltrexone, emphasizing the importance of support and self-discovery. Highlights Struggle with Alcohol: Ashton began drinking heavily in his early twenties, consuming up to two boxes of wine weekly. Discovery of TSM: After years of unsuccessful attempts to moderate drinking, he found the Sinclair Method through a TED Talk, which inspired him to seek help. Gradual Progress: Over nine months on TSM, Ashton reduced his intake to about one glass of wine per day, eventually achieving a stage of “extinction.” Supportive Community: Engaging with TSM support groups and therapy was crucial in navigating his relationship with alcohol and maintaining progress. Life Transformation: Ashton now leads a fulfilling life, prioritizing personal growth and relationships, and only drinks occasionally, emphasizing his regained control over alcohol. About Thrive Alcohol Recovery Thrive Alcohol Recovery is a worldwide online alcohol treatment program that uses a neuroscience-based approach to treat alcohol addiction with a clinically-proven 78% success rate.

About Katie Lain Katie Lain struggled with alcohol use disorder for nearly ten years until she stumbled upon The Sinclair Method. She couldn’t believe how effective the treatment was as it truly allowed her to become a moderate “normal drinker” – yet somehow, most people hadn’t even heard about it before. Katie Lain’s personal success with The Sinclair Method has inspired her to be a lifelong advocate for this method. Today, Katie is "accidentally" alcohol-free as she unexpectedly lost interest in drinking, thanks to this treatment. Now she advocates for and supports others through this wildly effective (yet unknown) treatment for alcohol use disorder. *Links* https://www.thrivealcoholrecovery.com/ https://tiktok.com/@thrivealcoholrecovery https://youtube.com/@thrivealcoholrecovery/ https://www.instagram.com/thrivealcoholrecovery/ https://www.facebook.com/groups/thrivewiththesinclairmethod https://www.linkedin.com/company/thrive-alcohol-recovery/ https://twitter.com/thrivewithtsm/
