    5 day cravings?

    Sharon, sorry you're having a tough time. Yes, days 3-5 are very tough ones for most people. You really have to stick with it. Can you buy some Kudzu or L-glutamine today from a drug store?

    They say that L-glutamine capsules can be broken open and placed under your tongue for immediate relief. I don't know from personal experience though.

    Read as many posts from the Long Term Abers for inspiration. Will it help to go to live chat and talk it out? I'll there with you if you like.

    Take care, hun. We are with you every step of the way.

    Love, Me

        Hi Sharon, Sorry you are experiencing this, but yep....the general consensus ins that days 4/5 are tough, but then it lightends up considerably!! I increased my L-Glut to 5000 units and it really seemed to help! Also remember, you are changine a long term "Habit", our mind "likes" habit and, our mind gets a bit confused when we change things!

        You'll pull through this!! Congratulations on getting this far!!

          So true. Cravings seem to come on strong by day 4/5. Fight off the desire for AL. You'll be glad you did. Once you hit 7, 8, 9 and so on, you are going to feel terrific! The cravings will pass. It's such a wonderful feeling to wake up not hungover.

            yep it happens to me too - I am at the end of day 3 right now and I am starting to feel them, just a little right now but I know in the next day or two they will get stronger. I am just planning on being on this site much more than normal during that time and hope that it will help get me through it. Good luck to you.
