I do every time I quit smoking

Alcohol cravings are slightly different for me, but I know the feeling!

PS 34 days is awesome, well done

Your AV will become weaker and weaker in time. Eventually, you will be able to blow him off as if he was a featherweight.

It will ease up, but the only way is to get through it just like you're doing.

Congratulations on Day 34.

You are doing great, Bellamiaa.

Hulk? Yes!!

When I felt that way, I would go on speed walks - grab my running shoes, put headphones on with great music, and punch the air until I felt like I had burned off all that energy. I agree with the others...this will pass. Keep up the good work. 34 days is spectacular!

Great analogy!!

Yes, I completely understand. Especially at around 30 days like you, I really felt like exploding.

Keep pushing through! You are doing great- don't give up.

This would be very common in early recovery... just keep it together, it will get better and better as the days stack up.
