7 days sober

Completely new to chat rooms so I don't know how this all works.
7 days sober and inventing reasons to go get some. Was looking for help but can't figure how to see live chats

The cravings will pass, 7 days is a great start. Keep the mind busy and post as often as you'd like to get through this. Welcome aboard.

Seven days is awesome. That voice telling you to it would be a good idea to drink is called the "Addictive Voice" and it's the bane to sobriety.

Why don't you tell us why you decided to get sober. Revisiting why you decided to get sober might help with your resolve and help drown out the voice that has seemed to have forgotten why you quit in the first place.

Congrats on 7 days.

Whenever I get persistent cravings I read and post on here and it works like taking a headache pill, within a few minutes the cravings subside.

Welcome Marcutah1
Congrats on your week

SR helped me stay sober when I had no confidence in my ability to do that. I leaned on the support here a lot. It really works - if you work it

this is the forum part of the website - if you're specifically looking for the chat room the portal is here:
