A bit off topic but has anyone tried Naltrexone or the Sinclair Method? I did a bit of research on it, tried it a few times but it gave me killer headaches but it seems like a really novel/interesting way to quit outside of the usual AA approach which was always a bit culty/unscientific for my liking

I've been using TSM for about three months now. Prior to starting, I was a frequent binge drinker and experienced significant memory loss from drinking once per week on average. After three months, my interest in drinking is very little to none. TSM gave me my life back.
If the headaches you are referring to are hangovers, this is common and happened to me. The community often refers to them as "Nalovers". Those stopped for me when my consumption got down to a safe level. I recommend sticking to the method if it is just that your hangovers are now much worse.

If you haven't already seen it, you might search around in /r/cripplingalcoholism on reddit. Most of it is random things regarding advanced alcoholism, but there's a surprising amount of, well, sober information on things people have tried, etc. Exceedingly non-judgemental.
