I also stayed sober my 3 day.!

At work today it was easy to so NO to alcoholā€¦ Donā€™t no why it was so easy to say NOā€¦ Because normaly I get cravings when I finish work at about 2300h. But today felt different and I feel real good about that.

When I arrived home my girlfriend was having a glass of wine with a friendā€¦ She didnā€™t offert me a drink because she knows I am not drinking. And the bottle was almost empty :rofl:.
I felt likeā€¦ ā€œOooh that looks niceā€ā€¦ a good glass of wineā€¦ But i ignored that feeling and took a real long shower because I know that all shops close in half a hour :muscle:t3::sunglasses:.

So now Iam save and the cravings are gone.

I dont realy understand why I got cravings by coming home and see my girlfriend drinking and not at work where alot of people where drinkingā€¦ :roll_eyes::thinking:

But anywayā€¦ I go to bed now and made it another day sober and that is al wat counts!

I was told that I get cravings because Iā€™m an alcoholic. Even after years of sobriety, I can still be stimulated at odds times and romance the idea of a drink. Fortunately, it does get easier to dismiss these silly thoughts when they do arise.

For me this is a real milestone because the last time was over 6 months ago :sunglasses::grin::pray:

The strange thing is that I dont realy have the bad cravings I have normally.
I had some cravings, but after 30 min they where over.

For the first time I am trying some supplements now which I read on the Internet should help with withdrawal symptoms.

Magnesium
L-Glutamine
L-Thyrosine

Does anybody has experience or also benefits with those supplements?

I am not sure my cravings are less because of those supplements or just because of my different mindset and focus!

I am on my second day after fighting for about two weeks now. What seems to be helping me now is counting the breaths, instead of the days. Maybe Iā€™ll start counting the days if I can get into the double digits. But I can always switch back to counting beaeth if I need to
