Your default has been to give in to the cravings so they stay until you do.

Stop giving in and your brain will adjust.

Tell the AV you Don't Drink
It does get weaker.

My cravings weren't too bad but when they come I just tell them, I Don't Drink Anymore so you are wasting your time.
They whimper and crawl away.

Something I've heard here before, cravings are just thoughts. Very intrusive and miserable thoughts but still they are just thoughts. We can control our thoughts. We can control our actions.
As long as those thoughts don't become actions we win.

It takes time.
