Thrive Alcohol Recovery

The Thrive Alcohol Recovery Podcast is your go-to resource for all things related to The Sinclair Method (TSM)—a groundbreaking treatment for alcohol use disorder with a clinically proven 78% success rate. TSM uses the medication naltrexone to help people naturally reduce or stop drinking over time. What makes this method so unique is that abstinence isn’t required. Instead, it works on a deeper level—within the brain—to rewire habits and reduce cravings. This allows many people to return to moderate, safe drinking or choose an alcohol-free life without the fear of relapse. 🧠✨ In each weekly episode, we dive into inspiring Sinclair Method success stories, share expert tips and insights, explore the latest science and research, and cover so much more. We’re so glad you’re here and part of our growing community of Thrivers. ✨ Change your drinking, change your life. ✨

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.
