That sounds like as good of an assessment as any. You are still most likely in the very, very early stages of acute physcial withdrawal so that shouldn't last more than a week or 10 days at worst. I think for me the hardcore cravings ended at about 2 weeks.

Working a solid program, having tools like urge-surfing, ect all help tremendously though. If all you are doing is "not drinking", the urges can be much stronger and especially when you have idle time.
