Interview: Sinclair Method & Trauma Specialist Gabrielle Loomis-Annett

Gabrielle Loomis-Annett is an alcohol and drug counselor as well as a trauma specialist. She emphasizes the importance of addressing both trauma and alcohol use disorder in treatment. She supports the Sinclair Method and believes that trauma work can begin even while a person is still using alcohol. The first phase of trauma treatment can be done concurrently with the Sinclair Method, focusing on assessments, diagnoses, education, and developing healthy coping skills. Once a person’s drinking is managed, the deeper trauma work can begin.

Samara’s Sinclair Method Testimony - Naltrexone for Alcohol Addiction

Samara shares her testimony on the Sinclair Method (TSM) and how it helped her overcome alcohol addiction after years of struggling. She started drinking at a young age to numb pain from domestic violence, and later joined Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) but still had intense cravings. She tried TSM in 2019 but quit too soon due to side effects. In 2020, she cried out to God for help and felt a strong urge to try TSM again. This time, she approached it differently, created her own protocol, and focused solely on TSM. She mitigated the side effects by eating a big meal before taking the medication, took non-drowsy dramamine, and gradually adjusted her drinking habits. She found success with TSM and reversed her addiction.

How do you know when I'm at extinction? Naltrexone & The Sinclair Method for Alcohol Addiction

The podcast discusses how to determine when someone is at extinction while using the Sinclair Method for alcohol addiction. It highlights that extinction is a subjective experience and not an overnight event. The bullet points below provide key points from the podcast:
Highlights
🍷 Extinction is a subjective experience and it’s up to the individual to determine if they have reached it.
🔄 Extinction is not an overnight event and often takes time to realize.
🚫 Extinction does not mean abstinence; it means having control over alcohol consumption.
💭 Signs of extinction include having an “off switch” when drinking, reduced cravings for alcohol, and alcohol occupying a smaller part of one’s life.
⏰ Extinction varies in duration, with some people reaching it in as little as three months and others taking a year or more.
📅 Adding regular alcohol-free days can help individuals recognize their progress towards extinction.
🚧 The focus should be on the journey rather than rushing towards extinction, as sustainable change takes time.
