Hi DeathKnight. thanks for your share.
First law of addiction. If you pick up you will end up where you left off. Cravings last for approximately 3 minutes. Do not drink one day at a time. Sobriety means facing reality. Working the twelve steps makes you a better person, and helps you to deal with reality.
In the AA book Living sober It says your suppose to change old routines you use to associate with drinking. I have been going to meetings and exercising. I am new to sobriety also, 50 days. I've had severe cravings. I continue to remind myself I can not pick up. I do not want to be a practicing alchoholic.
Best regards, Dan.
