When alcohol begins to reshape who you are, it’s normal to wonder, “Where did I go?” That’s why at Rethink Drink, we’re passionate about helping you be you again—without guilt, shame, or impossible expectations.
The Sinclair Method (TSM) offers a science-led path to overcoming alcohol use disorder (AUD) that’s built on trust, not cold turkey. Let’s dive into how it works and why it’s helping thousands reclaim their lives—quietly, powerfully, and with dignity.
What Is the Sinclair Method?
The Sinclair Method (TSM) is a medically-proven treatment that uses the prescription medication Naltrexone, taken an hour before drinking. Instead of asking people to stop drinking immediately, TSM works by rewiring the brain to slowly lose interest in alcohol.
This process is called pharmacological extinction—and it’s been backed by over 90 peer-reviewed clinical studies.
Key Features of TSM
You take Naltrexone before drinking
Over time, alcohol becomes less rewarding
The urge to drink fades naturally
You remain in control—no forced abstinence
Based on neuroscience and behavioural science
Ideal for those not suited to traditional recovery paths
"Be You Again" — What It Really Means
Alcohol can slowly chip away at your confidence, energy, and relationships. Many people find themselves wondering how they got so far from who they used to be. With the Sinclair Method, the journey isn’t about punishment or forced sobriety—it’s about rediscovering the version of you that existed before alcohol took centre stage.
“Be you again” is more than a slogan. It’s a promise that with the right method, coaching, and support, you can return to a life that’s joyful, productive, and true to you.
At Rethink Drink, we support every stage of this transformation with practical tools, compassionate coaching, and proven techniques.
How Naltrexone Works to Reverse Cravings
Naltrexone is an opioid receptor blocker. When taken before drinking, it prevents alcohol from delivering its usual euphoric effects. Over time, your brain stops associating alcohol with pleasure, and the desire to drink declines.
Here’s what changes:
Drinking no longer produces the same buzz or reward
Cravings begin to lessen naturally
The compulsion to drink fades over weeks and months
You drink less, without feeling deprived
Your brain “unlearns” the alcohol habit
That’s the power of pharmacological extinction. It doesn’t just cover up the symptoms—it reverses the learned behaviour that keeps people stuck in alcohol misuse.
TSM vs Traditional Sobriety Programmes
The Sinclair Method is different from conventional approaches because it allows people to change gradually. For many, the pressure of immediate abstinence is simply too much, and often leads to relapse.
Why TSM Might Be Right for You:
You want to reduce drinking without stopping overnight
You’ve relapsed after trying abstinence-based programmes
You prefer a private, science-backed solution
You value autonomy and a method that fits your lifestyle
You want to feel in control again—on your own terms
