Agreed,

As a dedicated AAer and someone who works on a relationship with my higher power (God, in the Christian sense) daily, I do believe my problem has been removed as the BB says it will.

As said above, it is different for everyone, but for me, I have had zero physical cravings since I quit and only one day (out of 535 or 17 + mo) where I even toyed with the idea of drinking. To me, that means my program and God are hard at work (me working the former and Him in charge of the whole).

I treasure the fact that I don't crave or want or think about alcohol in terms of using it. My focus is on emotional sobriety, and a lack of cravings is one reason I GET to focus on that.

Take care of yourself. Be grateful and keep going!
