Hi Pinky1, I am going thru kind of the same situation, and what has worked for me is just getting my mind on something, anything else. For me, I get a visual in my mind of me drinking, but I just really try to throw that thought/image away immediately, as many times as I have to. If I can't think of anything else to do, I go drink some water or herbal tea, or read just to keep my mind busy and off of alcohol. What someone said to me on here the other day is, "be kind to yourself," and keep coming back here because there is so much support and understanding here. I hope you are doing well.
