Sunday gets me everytime.

I drank every day so it didn't really matter so much. The good news is that they become far weaker and far less frequent as you gain sober time.

Keeping busy and having tools to keep them at bay is your best bet.

I agree with ScottFromWI. Everyday was a drinking day. That being said, my cravings are strictly random and are getting fewer & farther between.

MythOfSisyphus

I drank every day. At least 2.5 bottles of wine, usually 3 per night. But the night before my day off I always "celebrated" the fact that I didn't need to be functional the next day by getting extra drunk. Maybe 4 bottles of wine.

Wow! that's exactly how mine went too.

Saturday---sometimes, Sunday. Mostly Saturday.

I drank plenty, didn't matter the time or place or day, but now, while I don't have cravings through the week at all ... I did get a twinge the last two Fridays. A bit of a nostalgia, for the dressing-up and going-out ritual.

I actually miss the primping part even more, almost. I absolutely love to doll up and now I have no excuse to do so! Lol.

Sunday afternoon are very hard for me

Saturday was the worst, followed by Sunday. But I drank everyday so I guess everyday was a 5+ day anyways.

Sundays are pretty bad for me too I would say I can have cravings any day but even if I get through a weekend (highly unlikely) Sundays get me every time

friday after work and saturday.
Mon-Thurs are ok as I am just beat from work and can muddle through....but those Fridays after a long week can be a bit tough. Usually though, the drinking that started Friday didn't end til Sunday.

I rarely craved alcohol unless money was tight. I drank every day from the time I got up. Have not had craving since I quit.

Mostly an every other day drinker.
Weekends were always one day and often Friday and Saturday. Sunday seldom, Monday seldom, Tuesday was the hardest day to not drink, Wednesday was an easier day at work so Tuesday was the biggest day to not drink. Sort of Did not drink Sun or Mon, so it was time on Tuesday. Wednesday not much, then Thursday it started the craving, craving filled on Fri or Sat.

Of course this pattern was only used for about the last 14 years!!! Did not realize it until the last 6 months.

The ones ending in "Y".

Weekdays for sure. I was a bored housewife drunk.

5 pm everyday was my trigger, except for weekends and holidays. Those days my trigger was knowing I didn't need to get behind the wheel for the rest of the day.

Fly N Buy

My progression was from every other day (not cravings, but habit) to everyday - then I started having physical cravings at a certain time of day - threeve.

I do not experience physical cravings anymore, but the obsession/compulsion does hit occasionally.

Fortunately, by grace - I have tools in place to deal with those and they pass quickly. Simply run the tape, so to speak.


My cravings now are for sobriety - I am addicted and need it daily!

Every day was a good day to drink. Monday is the hardest day for me NOT to drink, because my attitude was (and still tends to be) "oh, joy, another week of the same-ol, same-ol." Friday is also a good trigger, 'cause WEEKEND.
