Thanks Casey! Thank God I didn't drink! In that moment...that moment of the craving....it's so hard & scary!
The cravings are getting less and less the longer I stay sober and the more cravings I get through. My sponsor said they will eventually go away! I know from my first round of sobriety from 2008-2014 they DO go away!

Since I've never really committed to quitting (though I've often committed to wanting to quit), and I have no frame of reference for my own in actually doing so, I have to actually do it (duh!). I think my plan has to be to stop first (duh, idiot!), then move forward. White knuckle then see what else I need to add. I've said this same thing before or something similar but I really do want to do it...even if I'm not really sure that I want to. The back and forth drives me crazy; I can't imagine how the sober feel about such waffling. Please bear with me.

Anyone else have this problem?

Winding down on day 10 without a drink and day 4 not smoking. Feeling pretty good at this point but I'm not going to let my guard down. I have drastically changed my lifestyle to make sure I won't drink for now it is working pretty good and I'm also getting healthy at the same time. Eating better and exercising often. I have been way to busy to smoke or drink at this point. It's getting to slow down just a little bit but I have not even thought about drinking so for now all is good. I hope it lasts
