Hi oak, glad you reached out to us. Sounds like you realize drinking is not an option. It will make your life worse. I have over a year and a half now and I gotta tell ya, the cravings have almost completely vanished. It does worry me. This doesn't seem normal. But I just accept it and ask gods help daily. Just remember oak, alcoholism is a deadly disease. If you start drinking you might not make it back to sobriety. And you will want to quit again. Because your drinking will put you in misery and pain. So heres your solution to these cravings. Tell yourself drinking is no longer an option. Completely surrender to sobriety. Sobriety is not boring, its comforting. Its safe. Its chosing life over death.
Thank you for sharing with us. Your posts helps everyone who's here and wants sobriety!
