I've been too confident and this is what happened to me. I wanted a drink this morning or the thought was there. and it was a strong craving. But, I have learned through you guys and my own feelings to kick that guy right off my shoulder. anyway-----thank you again for all the congrats.
Hugs

This is probably a silly question, but when you guys ( especially those who have been sober awhile) get bad cravings do you just "white knuckle it" or work through it another way? Somebody mentioned that by just allowing the urge and journaling what you were thinking, feeling, the trigger, etc... It could help down the road. Has anybody heard or experienced this.
Hang in there Babs and congratulations on your first year!!!!
