An urge is not an action. Urges will come and urges will go. I don't think its a matter of not having urges, its a matter of accepting you are having urges and not acting on them. We may not have control over our active drinking but we do have control over picking up or not picking up. Its not necessarily easy but it is sane. Urges diminish in time if you give it time. Be happy you're not living here in Nevada where bars and shops never close :-) Stay the course, its worth it. Reach within yourself, reach without your self, you'll find resources and support when you need it most. Take care.
