The podcast discusses how to determine when someone is at extinction while using the Sinclair Method for alcohol addiction. It highlights that extinction is a subjective experience and not an overnight event. The bullet points below provide key points from the podcast:

• 🍷 Extinction is a subjective experience and it’s up to the individual to determine if they have reached it.
• 🔄 Extinction is not an overnight event and often takes time to realize.
• 🚫 Extinction does not mean abstinence; it means having control over alcohol consumption.
• 💭 Signs of extinction include having an “off switch” when drinking, reduced cravings for alcohol, and alcohol occupying a smaller part of one’s life.
• ⏰ Extinction varies in duration, with some people reaching it in as little as three months and others taking a year or more.
• 📅 Adding regular alcohol-free days can help individuals recognize their progress towards extinction.
• 🚧 The focus should be on the journey rather than rushing towards extinction, as sustainable change takes time.

About Katie Lain

Katie Lain struggled with alcohol use disorder for nearly ten years until she stumbled upon The Sinclair Method. She couldn’t believe how effective the treatment was as it truly allowed her to become a moderate “normal drinker” – yet somehow, most people hadn’t even heard about it before. Katie Lain’s personal success with The Sinclair Method has inspired her to be a lifelong advocate for this method. Today, Katie is "accidentally" alcohol-free as she unexpectedly lost interest in drinking, thanks to this treatment. Now she advocates for and supports others through this wildly effective (yet unknown) treatment for alcohol use disorder.
