Stayed sober and went to bed as I was so tired from fighting it.
Had a lot of early nights of recent but I think it's just me catching up on real sleep and not alcohol induced.

Thanks for ur support guys I really needed it xx

Hi Zombie girl... A friend here told me about this book. "Under the Influence" Here is a short explanation of cravings, I recommend reading it,,it helped me understand the Physical needs for alcohol in alcoholics.

Craving is the overwhelming need for a drink. Like everything else in alcoholism, craving is progressive . During the early stages of the disease, craving is related to the benefits the alcoholic experiences from drinking—the alcoholic wants to drink because drinking makes him feel so good. In the middle stages of the disease, craving becomes a need— the alcoholic needs to drink because his cells are physically dependent on alcohol. In the deteriorative stages of the disease , the alcoholic drinks more directly for the purpose of relieving

Milam, James Robert; Ketcham, Katherine (2011-08-17). Under the Influence: A Guide to the Myths and Realities of Alcoholism (Kindle Locations 1119-1122). Random House Publishing Group. Kindle Edition.

Your cravings are real,, and they suck... maybe this book can help you as it did me.

Hang in their...
