Do you have any cravings ? I think you have been abstinent for quite a few months now, correct ? I am wondering what is it about the 'buzz' that you miss ? Is it because of the anesthetic type feeling where the edges seem to be smoothed over ? Does it act as a way of 'ending' the events of the day ? Maybe you could try some 'me' time where for 30 mins at the end of the day, you isolate yourself and simply reflect ?
