Are you using autosale? It sounds like you’re manually selling, perhaps that is why it’s so complicated. I used autosale while I worked at Google and had no problems

I'm not a tax professional but this hardly seems necessary. Have you consulted with a tax professional to confirm that this is all necessary? How much of a difference does it actually make, i.e. how much tax do you actually pay to MI?

This is not true. I have had ~15 drinks on Naltrexone which definitely qualifies as a binge although I never "truly" binged as I never blacked out after starting treatment via The Sinclair Method. It wasn't a great time espec

Not meaning to diminish the role that 12 step recovery plays in the lives of many but given the impact that alcoholism medication had on my own life I can't help but mention it here. I used Naltrexone through The Sinclair Method and re

I run the risk of becoming a single topic commenter but The Sinclair Method has had such a profound impact on my life that I cannot resist. It turned me from getting fired from FAANG for blacking out at work events and getting into trouble

You're not alone, your story is similar to mine. I was feeling the same as you last summer and also quit my big tech job. I tried my own thing for two months and realized more work wasn't the solution. I ended up moving out of NYC

Sorry if you already know this, but the difference with disulfiram/Antabuse is that these side effects are intentional and are supposed to act as a deterrent to consuming alcohol. The fact that it can kill you if you mix it with booze

> No addiction specialists back the 'the Sinclair Method' but do back daily use of Naltrexone. This is definitely not true having worked with addiction specialists on TSM myself. Plus I think it is safe to consider Sinclair him

I am part of the 26% that has done this, although in the past few weeks I have finally found some momentum in changing this habit. For me, it felt as though the content of my work is what drove me to do this. Building CRUD applications, ref

As I comment on many HN posts, I cannot exaggerate the impact that alcoholism medication has had on my life. It is only tangentially related here, as this comment is not about disulfiram but rather naltrexone, a drug with similar goals but

To anyone hoping to learn more about alcoholism medication, I highly recommend /r/Alcoholism_Medication. That subreddit, The Sinclair Method, and Naltrexone saved my life. More details in some of my recent comments too if you are

My story could not be more similar to yours. I abused alcohol and cannabis starting in college and up until relatively recently. Eventually the alcohol use had caught up with me and caused serious ramifications in my life. I was able to get

I am the same way. I currently drink one can of Diet Coke per day (46mg) on days where I don't take Concerta and approximately one half can if I do. Anything more will cause me to feel very anxious and a bit sick to my stomach. And I m

I would modify this recommendation to say that the shot version (Vivitrol in the US) is not necessarily compatible with The Sinclair Method which requires you to take Naltrexone only when you are drinking. So unless you drink every day, it

I used telemedicine to get my first prescription. I had a few appointments and probably talked to the total for about 30 minutes in total. The Sinclair Method is pretty straightforward once you understand it and there is only one hard rule

Highly recommend The Sinclair Method. I chose to try it because I wanted to be able to continue to drink socially as the OP mentioned. I actually overshot this and find myself completely abstinent for over a year now. It actually made me &q

To provide an alternate solution to the one already mentioned, I used a modern medicine approach to alcohol use disorder called The Sinclair Method. The tl;dr is that you continue to drink using an opioid antagonist (usually Naltrexone) whi

Telemedicine is great for avoiding those whacked out kids. I was able to find a great therapist (who I have never met in real life) through a mental health startup made available to me by my employer.

Comparing "unfocused without cannabis" to "focused with cannabis" is a no brainer: I am definitely more productive with cannabis if it gets my butt in the chair and fingers typing on the keyboard. Comparing "focused

Sorry if you have heard this before but you may have ADHD or something similar. I found myself in a similar pattern of using cannabis to motivate myself to do the more boring tasks that inevitably come up being a full time software engineer

It's possible to have different reactions to the same drug :) As someone that is a heavy longtime user and recently diagnosed ADHD (there is a deep relationship between cannabis/substances and ADHD), I did find during the pandemic

I'm curious whether a similar mechanism would apply to the COVID vaccines? Can someone with some expertise in the area help clarify if this is the case? Are we accidentally creating vaccine resistant COVID strains with mass vaccination
