"The best you can do sometimes is recognize them as crazy and ignore them to the best of your ability. I do not reason with them because I deign them as crazy. If I find myself indulging these thoughts, like saying back to them, oh, it would be ok to drink, you weren't that bad, maybe you weren't a real alcoholic, I just say to myself, NOT A REAL THOUGHT, IGNORE, and I wait. I just kind of watch them like they are a little crazy fantastical child throwing a tantrum in my mind that will go away after a while. And they do go away after a while. It is like waiting out a storm. For me I have had it last an hour to as long as two weeks". sfgirl
