At almost 7 months and getting cravings
Hi All,
Up until two weeks ago I had had almost zero cravings in sobriety; I am on medication to lessen cravings and have been since a few weeks in. Anyway, I've been under quite a bit of work stress throughout the last six months and never thought about drinking, but for some reason it popped into my mind two weeks ago and hasn't really left. I've prayed to my higher power to have him remove the desire to drink, which does help me in that moment, but it seems to always make its way back again.
I haven't changed anything about my recovery program (AA three times a week), and I definitely don't want to drink because I will ruin my life if I do. I guess I'm just reaching out for support - did cravings come out of the blue for anyone else? Just nice to know I'm not alone in this 😃 Thanks!
And PS, to any newcomers reading this, sobriety is absolutely, totally worth it! 😃
