Cravings when my alcholic friend talk

Day 7

Today is day 7 of my journey to sobriety. I experienced several relapses before, This morning, a friend who also struggles with addiction called me, and I felt the urge to have a drink while talking to him. However, I managed to disconnect the call by making some excuses.

WTG, sarath!! Great that you understood the danger your old drinking buddy presented and you disengaged yourself. You now have a plan to use with other drinking friends that will work until they stop looking you up. Avoiding people, places and things in early sobriety is good practice.

Eventually, as your old drinking friends slip away, you will gain new sober friends.
