Hi, FreeOwl.
I'm 3 years sober, and thought I had put all cravings and thoughts of drinking behind me.
Yet...this past Christmas, we were visiting friends at a house party. I was in the dining room by myself, staring at all of the open wine bottles.
I wanted a glass of wine so, so badly. What could one glass of wine do, after all?
I don't even like wine.
Well, I didn't drink, but it struck me how this feeling of WANTING to drink just never goes away.
Peace.
