Yes, don't drink tonight.
Just look ahead as to how you'd feel tomorrow. You really don't want to start all over again, do you?
You can do this. We can help. Stick around here and read the above link. Do whatever it takes. It is so worth it to stay sober. And you can.
Best to you.

No dont pick up!! Its not worth it, remind urself how u feel after, the hangover, the anxiety, shame, guilt, disappointment.....not worth that short term.buzz. stay close tonight/2day (wherever in the world u may be)!!

Don't give into the cravings. It's not worth it.
Do anything to distract yourself.

Take care. x

I'm sorry that you are craving, drinking now sure wouldn't help anything. Stay close to SR for the rest of the day.
I'm glad that you poured the rest of your booze out even if you aren't at this moment. Stay strong. You can do this!

Ice cream worked wonders for me and cravings. You will get through this.

I ate/eat sweets when I crave/d. My AA bud taught me that it tricks the brain.

Plus, I hated to drink on a full tummy. The buzz was not as intense.

Thanks.

your strong cravings are precisely why pouring out the alcohol was a great idea. You will make it through this.
