I havnt posted in a little while but something always occurred to me early on in to sobriety... Whenever I had the rare craving I just said ok Jeremy, 5 minutes of cravings or 3-10 days of withdrawal?? Really helped to clear my head & bring it all in to perspective... A very small tool but a very effective one...

I hope you are all well & are having a wonderful Easter...

Great post, Jezza. I used this thought process, too, and it also helped me many times (even though my cravings were typically longer than 5 mins at a time). I think it worked well especially because I went through so many horrible hangovers/withdrawals during the last year of my drinking and the memories were very vivid and aversive.

Glad you are doing well; happy Easter!
