previously my mind was a bunch of papers stacked up not organized one bit. The naltrexone turns my mind categorized into folders. It’s similar information but now it’s organized alphabetically, numerically and put into order and all feels right.
That’s how I’d describe this med for me. (Metaphorically)
It’s the opposite of a drug you get high on. I read another forum and someone was talking they hated naltrexone because it prevents you from getting high on certain substances. But I’d rather not be able to get high on certain substances and have an organized mind than be a messy drunken heroin addict or dead which is what I might have been on my way too. This med has truly been miraculous for me and anything u wanna know if ur curious just ask I’m becoming more and more of an expert on this med.
Zoloft and abilify has been very helpful to me but naltrexone has been the true “game changer”. To think I was only prescribed it for alcoholism it continues to exceed my expectations

I feel like I think almost as well as the normies. Like on my way to cognition that competes with normies. But I have years of thinking like a schizo. So I see both sides. I don’t think it makes me special other than it feels damn good to me. So I am special in my own right!! I feel I’ve already accomplished a lot and there’s no need to do anything but go with the flow in life now.
Living in the moment feels nice

Just feel like a couple years ago I could barely speak, couldn’t drive, couldn’t do much of anything. Was so far mentally disabled/incapacitated.
And now I’m a naturally strong conversationalist. I can drive to Alaska if I wanted.
It’s a miracle!!!
Edit maybe this should be in health recovery.
I also feel addicts/alcoholics should know this is an option that can help them.
I’ve seen naltrexone prescribed for Dp/dr.
But mostly, I think, doctors would prescribe it to any addict/alcoholic who asks for it. It’s an option for fellow dual diagnosis sufferers!!
