I want a drink too. But I want to be sober even more. Day 33 here, and I'm getting to the point where I think I can begin accepting that I'll always (to varying degrees) "want a drink". But so what? Doesn't mean I have to actually drink any alcohol. Because what's at the end of the drinking road is something that I don't want much more than I want a drink. It took many, many times of going "oh, what the h3ll, I'll have some drinks" to get to the point where I realized that no, I don't actually want to drink any alcohol, despite whatever ideations about drinking come up. Hope this helps.
