a lot of recovery is learning to work thru cravings and urges without relying on any other substance to make them go away. cravings WILL pass. usually they only last a limited amount of time....say 10 minutes. it just SEEMS like 10 years.

staying busy does help. not arguing or engaging with the "voices" also helps. just commit and recommit to not drinking today no matter what. take it five minutes at a time if you have to.
