“Week 1 felt strange, but by week 4 I was leaving wine in the glass. Taking the tablet before a drink removed the buzz I chased. Therapy gave me new routines. I now stop at two without white-knuckling.”

“My cravings dropped from 8 out of 10 to about 3 within six weeks. The biggest change was control once I started. Accompanied dinners in month one helped me practise calmly in real life.”

“I had tried ‘just willpower’ for years. The medication took the edge off; the sessions rewired the habits. I now choose whether to drink, not the other way around.”

“Evenings used to escalate. On the method, I could pause after the first drink. My partner noticed I was present, not chasing the next glass. We now have quiet nights again.”

“I did not want rehab or time off. This fitted around theatre lists and on-call. Units trended down month by month, and I kept my life intact.”

“I tour and write at night, so pubs and studios were my danger zones. By week 3, taking the tablet before a drink took the edge off the buzz I chased. In rehearsals I could stop at one or two and stay sharp. The therapy gave me new studio routines and the first-month accompanied events and shows helped me practise calmly in real life. No rehab, no time out. Just control.”

“Show season meant constant client dinners and champagne top-ups. On the method, I learned pacing and timing. The medication stripped the reward, and with Andrea’s scripts I could leave the glass half full. Two became enough. Sleep improved, work improved, and I stopped dreading events.”

“Client dinners used to run away with me. On the method I pace, I stop at two, and I am sharper at 7 a.m”

“I lived on client drinks and late finishes. By week 3, taking the tablet before a drink took the edge off the buzz I usually chased. With Andrea’s pacing scripts, I could stop at one or two and still hold the room. Units trended down each week, sleep improved, and I was sharper for morning meetings. No time out, no drama — just control.”

“I live on late sets, studio nights and rider drinks. By week 3, taking the tablet before a drink took the edge off the buzz I used to chase. With Andrea’s pacing scripts and swaps on my rider, I could hold the vibe, stop at one or two, and stay sharp on stage. We did a real-world session at a venue in month one to practice it for real. Units trended down, sleep improved, and my mixes got cleaner. No rehab, no time out — just control.”

“Late sets, fewer units, cleaner mixes. Tablet before the drink, pacing during the night — control without stepping off the stage.”

“I live on pitch nights, product sprints and networking drinks. By week 4, taking the tablet before events took the edge off the buzz I used to chase. With Andrea’s pacing scripts and simple swaps, I could hold the room, stop at one or two, and keep my story tight. We even rehearsed it in a real investor dinner during month one. Units trended down, sleep improved, and I was sharper. No time out, no drama — just control.”
