I know that early in sobriety you tend to think about that drink for a while...everyday, once an hour or whatever...and you crave it...it's always there in the back of your mind...but will you think like this forever??

I have heard some people's stories where they have been sober for 5 or 10 years and yet they have times where they crave a drink...do you still think about booze everyday like you do in early sobriety??

I don't want to think of booze every single day.

I mean, when I quit smoking I thought about it for a while and now sometimes it will go through my head "what if you had a ciggy" but it is just a fleeting moment...just comes and goes and you don't really think about it...
I am confused...
Was just wondering everyone's opinion or personal experience is on this.

Thanks.
