naltrexone also works for sugar addiction.
I had a horrible sugar addiction, would binge eat late at night, the weight kept creeping up. I started drinking to help me sleep at night after spouseAnon got blown up by an IED in Iraq. Never had a problem with sugar or ETOH (just another form of sugar toxic to your body, your liver esp) before that, never had a problem with weight, etc.
Went keto + naltrexone + metformin off label and a year later am back to my normal weight, feel better, sleeping better, don't crave sugar or ETOH anymore, and when I do "indulge", find most desserts, ice creams etc far too sweet now.
Naltrexone is cheap, too
Take it one hour at a time.
Have lots of healthy things to snack on and/or drink when you crave something.
I love all citrus fruits, so I slice up 1/2 lemon, lime, blood orange whatever and make diffused water to sip. I sip it slowly in a wine glass over shaved ice, kek, to mimic drinking.
Roasted veggies and large premade salads with homemade dressings are good to for cravings.
Good luck to you Anon. Alcohol doesn't work.
