I have no idea why you had no cravings for 2 weeks. But I think from this one and your posts before, you have the disease. Like you say, if you were NOT, you probably wouldn't have the debate going on. Normal drinkers also don't drink in their bedroom with the door locked.
The last time I had a debate going in my mind, I was telling my self I could drink. I was going to drink.
Once I told myself I'm an alcoholic, I can't drink so I might as well for get it. Or drinking just isn't an option. the cravings go away. As Carol says the cravings only last a few minutes. (I know they can seem like days) But it really is just a few minutes.

As long as it's in your mind that there is a chance to drink, you will have cravings. The more you think you can, the stronger the cravings get.
Stick with it.
