Day 9

Can't believe it's already been 9 days. I feel sort of lucky that I haven't given into some of the strong urges, but I know that can also be viewed as perseverance. So far today is going well. Can't wait for the day that the urges are pretty minimal again. Exercise has helped me a lot, as well as allowing myself to eat more than I normally would to help with the cravings.

Congratulations!!! 9 days is awesome. I wonder too about the alleviation of the urge to drink... It seems like for some people, it almost completely goes away at some point. Im not there yet either... It's a daily thing for me. Basically I've been trying my best to make my recovery an integral part of my life so it doesn't feel like a chore. Some days I'm more successful than others

Congratulations, FreedomCA.

The urges become less strong and further, with time and the utilization of good recovery tools, as does sobriety itself.

Great job on 9 days. Keep on.
