Phew, made it through the day! Thanks my friends.
My meeting was good - it was a member's 10 year medallion. Although inspiring, it's hard to fathom getting to that point at this stage of my recovery.
I was thinking of a metaphor to try explain how my cravings have felt the past few weeks. So, imagine you're doing a polar swim and you've submerged your half naked body into icy water. Now imagine how freezing cold it is, the water like icy needles jabbing into your raw skin. How long can you hold it until you leap from the water yelling 'I GIVE' before running to the nearest hot sauna for relief?
