Rethink Drink saved my life
When I signed up with Rethink Drink 8 weeks ago I was drinking between 2 and 3 bottles of wine a night 7 days a week I was at rock bottom and saw no way out I had approached other services who told me I needed to go to 24 meetings go on a detox program and be alcohol free for 7 days before I could be prescribed Naltrexone Even though I told them I don t have 12 weeks left in me they sent on me on my way and told me to check in again when I was sober The thought of having to white knuckle it and detox on my own whilst attending meetings with absolute strangers put the fear of God into me and it was never going to work for me I had given up all hope and was barely existing when I came across Rethink Drink on a TikTok live and could not believe what I was hearing I could sign up to their program and be prescribed Naltrexone immediately without having to detox or stop drinking straight away It sounded too good to be true but I was desperate to get a handle on my drinking and had nothing left to lose so took the plunge and signed up - and boy am I glad I did To say my life has changed in 8 weeks is an understatement I have gone from drinking between 180 - 200 units of alcohol a week to less than 50 units with alcohol free days in between Matt my coach has walked this very difficult journey with me every step of the way We have weekly catch ups and he has been available on the other end of the phone whenever I have experienced a wobble or doubted the process The weekly meetings take place on Zoom so no having to meet up and be vulnerable with strangers It is just you and your coach on a Zoom call being real and very supportive Matt and Bruce have many many years experience in their field and have walked this journey themselves so no judgement from them was a massive comfort to me 8 weeks ago I was at rock bottom and now I am happier than I have been in a very long time My husband has said he now has his wife back My daughter has told me how much she has missed me and my parents are left wondering what has gotten into me I have gone from wishing my days away due to self loathing hangxiety and depression spending most days in my dressing gown until I can muster up the energy to have a shower and get dressed sometimes not leaving my house for 2 weeks at a time to waking up before 6am getting dressed straight away doing a yoga session or baking pies before 7am I have found joy in the small things like gardening and art My life no longer revolves around wine o clock I m not biting my nails waiting for 5pm so I can have a drink after a hard day My social anxiety has disappeared and I now spend a lot of time at a community allotment talking to absolute strangers and finding joy in seeing seeds grow I get out for walks on a daily basis and take each day as it comes I no longer wake up with a feeling of dread wondering what I had said or done the night before If you had asked me 8 weeks ago if I could see myself having one alcohol free day in 8 weeks time I would have laughed but here I am having 3 alcohol free days some weeks I still have some way to go but those feelings of hopelessness and failure have now been replaced with determination and pride Feelings I never thought I would experience The mental clarity that comes with drinking less and less as the weeks go by have allowed me to find ME and like ME again I and my family cannot thank Matt Bruce and the Rethink Drink program enough for saving my life If you are in need of support and guidance on how to get a handle on your drinking you don t have to feel alone contact Rethink Drink for a chat you wont be sorry you did

Amazing
Rethink drink changed my life for the better in so many ways I d tried almost everything I wish I d heard of this sooner it seems too good to be true doesn t it but it really doesn t have to be hard Alcohol is an addictive substance so it still baffles me that people get shocked when others become addicted whether it s through learnt behaviour trauma or a night cap that gradually got out of hand alcohol is designed to ignite parts of our brain that keep us wanting that flame And if you re anything like me you chase that flame more often than you d like I d spent many of nights waking up having anxiety attacks that I was going to die young or not make it to the morning if I kept going on like this why can t I be normal why can t someone just pass me an extinguisher and make me normal well guess what they can As soon as I found rethink drink on TikTok everything Matt and Bruce said made absolute sense to the medic in me it s all fact it s all science and finally someone is recognising this is a neurological imbalance rather than a disease Not once did they mention god or having to clean house in fact everything they said totally appealed to the drinker in me too I could keep drinking of course I listened to that part first and just thought I d do this and keep everyone around me happy However it worked it actually worked 3 months down the line and I don t crave alcohol it no longer takes up space in my head I never binge I pour away more than I drink and I ve not been drunk since starting TSM I drink within safe recommended limits and that s within 3 months my liver is getting better my head is clear my work and family life have improved drastically and I m no longer scared that I won t make it through the night Matt has been the most supportive coach and he has a great sense of humour and non judgmental attitude- which is exactly what I needed he gives you that nudge in the right direction without completely taking over your life The medication does have one serious side effect though that s really important to mention You won t drink well certainly not as much and who knows after 3 months like me you may even consider giving it up completely because it just doesn t make you happy anymore it doesn t taste the same and there s just no appeal It works It s worth the money and it will change your life without over complicated alternatives that are out there this way is simple and effective I am actually ashamed the NHS and GPs are not using this method more they probably will eventually but if I d have waited that long I may not have made it Big thank you to Matt please keep spreading the word and bringing people back to the lives they should be living whilst naltrexone has been the extinguisher I needed you ve been that mentor reminding me how capable I am and rebuilding my confidence along the way Thank you so much

Life Changing
started on The Sinclair Method TSM in June and it has changed my life I was a weekend drinker frequently consuming one and a half or two bottles of wine plus a cocktail or two on a Friday and Saturday plus the occasional Thursday or Sunday Every time I drank I felt unable to stop and experienced black-outs Surprisingly no-one was aware that I was having these black-outs every time despite me having to be reminded how I got home or even where we had been I was always hung-over on weekend mornings and spent a lot of time in bed with paracetamol and hanganxiety I was increasingly worried about my drinking but despite my best efforts -many sober Octobers Novembers Januarys - I was unable to limit myself to a couple of drinks So I contacted Bruce at Alcohol Recovery Scotland as I had been told about naltrexone by a friend After my initial contact I had a Zoom conversation with Bruce and then one with a consultant Psychiatrist I was then able to be prescribed naltrexone which along with my weekly chats with Bruce has changed my life Bruce has explained to me that my inability to control my drinking is not some terrible weakness on my part but in fact a chemical process in my brain that is in no way under my control My brain overreacts to alcohol and wants more and more to keep getting the good feeling The naltrexone TSM prescribes simply blocks this process From the first time I took it I was aware of how much I was drinking and rapidly came to feel in control of alcohol rather than it controlling me This has been life-changing I can go to social events and have a couple of drinks I can have more if I want but I will be choosing to have them The number of units I drink has gone from 40 a week to an average of 4 I chat with Bruce on a weekly basis It is not counselling per se but a friendly supportive chat with guidance and encouragement His only rule is that I take a tablet an hour before I drink I know that if I needed I could call or text Bruce at any time if was struggling It has been a challenge to accept that I am not a weak or bad person because I could not control my drinking but TSM is scientifically proven with properly run trials to support it so I trusted the science It certainly works Thanks to Bruce and TSM my relationships sleep anxiety confidence and general well-being are all massively improved It is no exaggeration to say this is a game changer I highly recommend Bruce Rose and Rethink DrinkLiz Carrie

I have my life back
Seven months ago I embarked on a journey with Rethink Drink that I can only describe as incredible For years I struggled with my drinking tirelessly searching for answers through the conventional routes of abstinence-based programmes The constant battle felt insurmountable leaving me frustrated and hopeless Then I found Rethink Drink and more specifically had the fortune of being coached by Matt To say this experience changed my life would be an understatement Matt s approach grounded in the innovative Sinclair Method combined with personalised coaching has been nothing short of revolutionary for me Before this programme I felt trapped in an endless cycle of dependency guilt and frustration Now I m living a life I didn t think was possible I ve regained control over alcohol and with it a sense of freedom and empowerment I d lost hope of ever feeling What astounds me most is how such a groundbreaking solution isn t more widely recognised or utilised There must be thousands of individuals out there just like me battling their dependence on alcohol unaware that a solution like Rethink Drink exists a solution that doesn t just offer a temporary fix but a genuine transformation Matt and the Rethink Drink programme have not only provided me with the tools to manage my relationship with alcohol but have fundamentally altered my understanding of recovery It s a programme I believe needs to be shared far and wide because nobody should have to go through the struggle of traditional methods when such an effective alternative is available I am profoundly grateful for Matt s guidance support and the entire Rethink Drink philosophy If you re seeking a path out of the cycle of alcohol dependency this is it Rethink Drink has been a lifeline for me offering a beacon of hope when I needed it most Trust me when I say it can be that for you too

Rethink Drink is life changing
Stumbling across a live Rethink Drink on Tik Tok changed my life My drinking had been gradually increasing after Covid the breakdown of my marriage along with a few other social and personal factors I only drank in the evening but at what point would I want to start earlier in the day I thought that could happen and knew I wanted to do something about it but wasn t sure I was committed to giving up alcohol totally I had tried lots of different options hypnotherapy workshops Alcohol free experiments abstinence programmes I read books and listened to podcasts etc etc but I still felt stuck when it came to my drinking That is until I signed up to RETHINK DRINK With the amazing support of Matt and Bruce and THE SINCLAIR METHOD TSM I have reduced my alcohol consumption by over 30 in the first few months My desire to drink and the triggers that would usually lead me to want to drink alcohol have completely changed I still have some work to do on my habits but I can hand on heart go to a pub or social event and not feel like I missing out by not drinking an alcoholic drink in fact I actually prefer not drinking sometimes This was huge for me The taste of alcohol has also changed and I am finding I don t enjoy it as much as I once did I still have more work to do it s a gradual process but brings lasting change but my unit intake continues to fall and never have I once felt I was deprived I cannot recommend Matt and Bruce at RETHINK DRINK highly enough It has changed my life and in turn those around me too It s the best investment I have ever made and what better way to invest than in yourself Thank you Matt and Bruce the work you do is not only changing but also saving the lives of so many Please keep going

I cannot recommend this enough
I cannot recommend this enough Today marked the end of my 3 month program I started this as I was drinking more often than I wanted to and consuming more alcohol per sitting than I planned to I was averaging 5 days a week drinking and there hadn t been a weekend that I ve not drank in 5-10 years I was regularly planning to trying to and failing at reducing the amount I drank on a regular basis but it never seemed to happen Drinking was what I looked forward to and the thing I worked towards most days or to celebrate the arrival of the weekend The problem was the regret was outweighing the reward so I decided to give this a go after seeing a friend having success with it Once I started the process it took effect for me quite quickly It simply reduced the amount that I enjoy drinking the warm fuzzy feeling that I didn t even realise I got until this was gone It s not been completely linear I ve had some reasonable drinking sessions in the last 3 months but a lot less and not as extreme as they have been prior to this and they ve just become less and less as the desire is no longer there I was never planning to stop drinking completely and I m still not as I don t feel the need to decide but as I write this it s been 3 weeks since I last drank alcohol I ve been away with friends and out for meals with them etc and I ve not felt the urge to drink so simply haven t Matt the coach that has spoken to me on a weekly basis is such a genuine easy to talk to guy and is passionate about this method which I m sure has been a big contributor to my success Simply life changing

Best step I ve ever taken
For almost twenty years I had a secret problem with alcohol I still feel amazed to say that today I don t Rethink Drink helped me finally and permanently solve the problem in a way that I d never imagined was even possible I still drink now but with absolutely no anxiety around it All stress and shame and worry is gone I ve regained complete control over when and how much I drink which is barely ever now to be honest At Christmas or weddings or if I ever do just feel like it I can drink with everyone else and effortlessly stop when I want to It s total night and day from where I was One of my parents was alcoholic and it cost them their life so I can honestly say that Rethink Drink has saved my life I was on a very dangerous path I only wish I d heard of TSM years ago If you or someone you know is struggling contact Matt and Bruce They re really sound and totally down to earth They know exactly how to guide you through the process no matter how long or how much you ve been drinking They can help you It s the best step I ve ever taken for myself and my family

The Rethink Drink program is a life changing
The Rethink Drink program is a life wife and family saving program not to sound too clich I cannot emphasise the effect this little white pill has had thats not to say its not been hard hard work and a struggle at times but it has turned my relationship with alcohol around I have tried numerous times to stop or to cut down on the drink but slowly and surely it creeps back into my life never leaving me the want the need never letting up but now I have the control not it The pill and program has put me in full control I can choose to have a drink or not I ve walked into the shop with the full intention to buy some alcohol got caught up buying some bread and walked out forgetting to pick some drink up Never in my life has that happened Just for some clarity here I was drinking to excess I ve had times waking up not knowing where I ve been who I ve been with or what I ve done Before starting the program I had done a lot of work I got myself from over 100units plus a week to 70ish but the pull and tug continued to be there I then met Matt and the program Look you have to admit to yourself you have a problem want to change your relationship with alcohol yes you can still have a relationship Why this pill is not widely available makes no sense Game changing 5 star program all the way Matt is approachable and easy to talk too he knows and understands P

Just give it a go it s so worth it
Last year my husband said I m starting to worry a bit which made me think about my alcohol intake small things like - forgetfulness fuzzy head bags under eyes from poor sleep struggling to concentrate started getting harder and harder So I tried the Alan Carr easy way to stop drinking didn t work I tried not drinking in the week but then basically made up for it on the weekends I ve not tried AA but personally knew it wasn t for me Call it denial but for me I was still a normal drinker 1-2 bottles of wine a night My physical and mental health also suffered massively and I had to take time off work due to stress and anxiety which in hindsight was totally exacerbated by the alcohol And then I found TSM I had known about it for a while but was sceptical I tried it out because the research behind it made sense to me and I haven t looked back What I would say is that you have nothing to lose I m now 6 weeks in and only this past week I ve noticed I ve stopped obsessing and constantly thinking about alcohol I ve had so many alcohol free days and have rejoined the gym I honestly can t wait to get better and better The coaches are amazing - it s a must It s not a magic pill but the program is designed to ensure maximum success Huge shoutout to Matt Brindley who has been instrumental to my positive journey so far He has quite literally transformed my life and I will be forever grateful
