You just have to stay strong for a while.
I used to get days like this when I did my long stretch AF.
Stay with us and don't surrender to the temptation.
You WILL feel better when it passes, as it will.
I used to take a loooong bath.

Kaddy 129 days is excellent. Just think of it as a phase that will pass, busy yourself. Do you have L Glut that you can sprinkle under your tongue...that does wonders.

Stay strong, you can do this.

Just don't quit. But if you do? Keep coming back here...you can do it. I'm a newbie, but I've started to believe all these amazing people here. Can you go to live chat? That can help...

Kaddy,

I've learned that I cannot control those AL thoughts - but I do not have to act on them. Just let it pass.
Don't give in!

Hang on!!

I have had moments like that when it felt like my hair was on fire I wanted a drink so bad and it passes on surprising quickly. Last night I thought that maybe if I found a forgotten can of beer in the back of the fridge I could drink just the one during the ball game. Of course there were none and by the time I was sipping my club soda I had completely forgotten about the urge.

Take a few deep breaths, not too many and the urge should pass soon.

PMT totally does it to me. HOLD ON. You asked for help here- so clearly you DON"T want to do it. You can not drink.

I am only on 12 days AF, and I just had the worst cravings yet. I went and got something to eat, then headed to the store. Just when I was headed in to the store, a woman that I met from AA called me. She needs a ride to a meeting. What a Godsmack. That was the closest that I have come to caving yet. Scary.

Hey, Kaddy!

If you had it, it wouldn't be anywhere near as good as you thought it would be, and neither would all the ones that follow! But you know that, don't you? From last time. And the time before. And the time before. And the time before. And the time before that....alcohol is highly overrated, and it sucks.
