We had the pleasure of having both Dr. Roy Eskapa, PhD, and Claudia Christian on the program today. Dr. Roy Eskapa is a clinical psychologist and the author of The Cure for Alcoholism. Claudia Christian is an actress, director, and producer best known for her work on the TV show Babylon 5 who wrote a memoir on her struggles with alcoholism titled Babylon Confidential. Both joined us to discuss the Sinclair Method for treating alcoholism. Under this program patients take a prescription drug that blocks the endorphin rush they experience while drinking and are allowed to continue drinking eventually losing the addiction and becoming able to return to moderate social drinking or leave alcohol behind altogether. Unlike other treatments the patients do not experience withdrawal and it has been highly successful. Dr. Roy Eskapa joined us to talk about the method and share the research he has gathered and how the method works from a clinical perspective. Claudia Christian shared her experience as someone who was able to finally successfully end her alcohol addiction with the Sinclair Method after trying nearly every other treatment available.
