    Information about anitbuse
    I need more information about antibuse tablets, I have been on antibuse now for four months and it really helped me to stop drinking but I found that if I drink my livinton tonic, which have a 15% of alcohol in it but I don't get sick or nothing happens to me.
    I drink now only maybe every second / third day my tablet, and how long after leaving the tablets could you have a drink with out getting sick or anything happening to you. :)

    Well,if you were placed on anabuse in the beginning,what makes you think ANY drinking would be a good thing?

    What about not drinking is making you drink now?

    Alcoholism doesn't 'go away' just because someone doesn't drink for a while,even if they stop altogether!It's a life long addiction!

    Taking a 15% alcohol based drink was a test to see if you could 'get away with it',unfortunately,you did.

    Now you think your over the problem and want to see how long till you can return to the way you were in the past?

    INSANITY=Doing the same behaviors(drinking ANY alcohol)And expecting different results(?? )

    What got you to take the anabuse in the first place?

    Do you want that reason to reappear?

    This is a RECOVERING alcoholic writing this, I have been there,done that,see it often,hate to see it ever.

    If you want your misery refunded, take someone else's advice,mine is only for the people who don't want to return to their personal chaos.

    Blunt and to the point,

    If you are alcoholic and continue to drink it will only get worse, never better, you will be even sicker than before you started taking the tablets.. that's because it is a progressive disease. Get educated in what you suffer from at any AA meeting, it may well save your life. Good luck.
