Hi again....
Cravings
I timed my cravings. They were 5-7 minutes in duration.
Not too long too endure discomfort.
Soooo....I took action.
Walk around ... brush teeth...drink cold water...a Lifesaver
Within 2 weeks...the lessened in both time and intensity.
By 2 or so months .... they vanished.
Yes...attending an AA meeting is a wise move.
Your resistance to change is self defeating.
Blessings to you and your family
