Those urges pass. In early sobriety, I had to distract myself to get through them. SR is a real godsend. Read some posts, support a newcomer, congratulate people who are hitting milestones. Read the Big Book (even the stories). Listen to online Speaker tapes. Spiritual readings. This is all right in front of you!

It all works towards strengthening your recovery.

You know, now when I think of a drink I automatically think of a three day out-of-control/blackout bender and the Hell I would wake up in. F*** that.
