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. ✨

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.

The Sinclair Method is a science-based treatment program for alcohol addiction that uses the medication naltrexone. It allows and requires individuals to continue drinking alcohol while taking the medication. The method works by reversing alcohol use disorder in the brain and gradually restoring it to its pre-addiction state. The protocol involves taking naltrexone one to two hours before the first drink of the day. The ultimate goal is pharmacological extinction, where individuals are no longer addicted to alcohol. The method can be done privately and changes are gradual and subtle. It is important to be compliant and give the method enough time to work, as it has a 78% success rate.

Breaking the habit requires conscious awareness and finding alternative activities. Boredom can be uncomfortable, but having a list of things to do instead of drinking is crucial. TSM helps to weaken the craving for alcohol, but the habit may still be ingrained and take time to change. It is important to realize that drinking out of boredom is a habit and to practice delayed gratification.

The number one reason why the Sinclair Method doesn’t work for people is their lack of internal motivation to change. People may start off motivated but lose interest over time.
Highlights
💡 Lack of internal motivation is the main reason for the lack of success with the Sinclair Method.
💡 Motivation is what gets you started, discipline is what keeps you going.
💡 Internal motivation affects compliance, mindfulness, and making the right choices.
💡 Building a clear purpose and understanding the “why” behind the change is crucial.
💡 Getting emotional and excited about the method helps with commitment.
💡 Consistency with small daily decisions is key for long-term success.
💡 Small decisions, like choosing lighter alcohol or complying with medication, have a significant impact on progress.
