So @jennatar hasn’t had the best relationship with alcohol, but recently, decided to start taking naltrexone, a drug which has shown promise in helping to curb your desire to drink.
One thing we didn’t realize about naltrexone is that it can significantly help manage chronic pain.
Jenn has been a different person the last few days. She has been kinder and less frustrated; she has been more empathetic.
She says it took her a while to notice the connection. That when you constantly feel pain in your body, you start to live inside yourself, constantly aware of the pain. She said she realized she had stopped being able to understand how other people thought.
I am amazed by this transformation. I hope it continues to help her, because today she seemed genuinely happy and hopeful for the first time in a long time.
