First week 5 days

Coming up 5 days tonight. Last time I went a week! I’ve never went longer than a week since I had my first ever drink. Anxiety is kicking in and the cravings are creeping up. I can do this!

Day 5 for me also. So far so good today. No real cravings today. I had a big craving on my 3rd day. It is hard to get through but it is possible. Planning my evening to be alcohol free. Planning on replacing it with some tea and good snacks for distraction.

Sounds like a good plan! Well done for day 5. And yeah I’ve found myself snacking a lot on an evening to kind of distract myself.

Glad you’re here Karl! This is a great place to find support and resources for living a sober life and dealing with addiction. There are a lot of threads here dedicated to recovery, but also plenty for entertainment like art, film, music, sports, nature, animals and more!

Great work getting to 5 days sober! You definitely can do this! Don’t hesitate to reach out if you need additional support, you’re not alone in this struggle! :smiling_face_with_sunglasses::call_me_hand:
