I was miserable until I had a waffle with syrup and I swear almost instantly the world felt brighter and I could not just constantly be thinking about wine.
This “self actualization” stuff is hard work…
I think waiting on the sugar may be a good idea. I noticed that a piece of cake would take the edge off in early sobriety. By 6 months in the cravings were pretty much non existent. I did a whole30 at 7 months and had no problems. I did so well I thought I had broken my sugar compulsion and had some. We all know how that ends.
