Craving
Well, this is my 4th weekend that I won't be drinking but man am I CRAVING. I was looking at all inclusive resorts in books and just remembered the all you can drink that accompanies those trips.
The thought of going on a trip doesn't even seem fun anymore.
ugghhhh.. not easy.

No one said that this would be easy, however it does get different. A craving only last for 7 seconds it is what we do after that 7 seconds that makes it go on longer. Try to get up from whatever you are doing and do something different, read, write, watch a movie, just change your thoughts might be a good thing to say the Serenity Prayer.
God
grant me the serenity
to accept the things that I can not change
Courage to change the things that I can
and the wisdom to know the difference
Keep saying that over and over and concentrate on the words and what they mean to you.

My husband doesn't understand
My husband is a very practical and rational kind of guy and really doesn't understand addictions and anxiety. He thinks the reason I have problems with alcohol is because I drank too much when I was younger. He thinks I can just switch it off and not think about it. He then tells me I don't have nothing to feel anxious about.. ugghhhhhh....
