Congratulations, HFA! I hope you start feeling better soon. I found that I had bad days and good days (hmm... just like real life!) The really strong cravings went away after 2-3 weeks. They don't hit me like a 2x4 anymore.
One thing I've realized is that I always drank to change my mood (enhance it, suppress it, whatever). So it's not always easy to just sit with whatever I'm feeling these days. But it beats spending each morning feeling sad and sick. And I WANT to figure out how to be bored or even unhappy without picking up a drink.
This recovery thing is a process, a journey - it's going to take time to learn to do things sober again. Ten days isn't a long time, really.
