Hi Rissa. Did you get to your meeting?

12-14 days in to my sobriety was often when I went back to drinking. The negative effects of the alcohol had worn off, I was usually feeling better and boredom had often set in. And the cravings would start to kick in. I wish I had learned to ignore tham, or at least act on them, much earlier in life. Instead of doing something proactive - going to a meeting for example or simply learning how to "crave surf" - I give in to the cravings and drank. Hopefully you are feeling more relaxed and the urge to drink has lessened.
