Day 27 and I feel like I'm slipping
I am 27 days into my first real attempt at sobriety. I attend a recovery meeting, and I'm trying to put the tools I've learned to use. The trouble is, that the craving that I am having today, is one of the worst I've had since detoxing. My entire body is screaming for just one beer. I know that I cannot control my intake, so I have to abstain. Yet, I'm fighting with some very powerful thoughts that are trying to convince me otherwise. I've called my friend, tried to relax and use visualization, but this craving is not going anywhere, it seems to be getting stronger. Anyone have techniques or thoughts that help them through times like this? Any input would be appreciated. Thanks.
