Hope everyone is doing good today! I’ve been sober from alcohol for over a month going into my 60 day mark and this is probably the first time since day one of sobriety that I’ve been having major cravings! I just recently got laid off from my job and I’m really trying not to let it get to me rn but I have to be honest with myself and recognize cravings today I am having some cravings and I’m not gonna cave but I just feel very vulnerable r it’s a crappy feeling

Great to see you Gabe! Congratulations on coming up to 60 days
The cravings can be a bitch but hold strong. They do not last. For me getting some fresh air or doing a work out helps. Yesterday I went to my first AA meeting cause I was worried about my cravings - that worked for me
Wishing you luck with breathing through the cravings. We are here with you. Keep going strong

Sorry for the hard times Gabe. You’re doing exactly the right thing though. You’re coming here, sharing and looking for connection instead of believing the lies the addicted part of your brain is telling you. Good work! You need your sobriety and a clear head to face this and get out of this. I’m glad you’re here. We’re in this together friend

Thank you Jazzy I’ve been doing really well up until last night and today. I’m at the gym now trying to clear my mind and re-center myself. I think after this I’m gonna go for a drive or something to kinda get outta town for a little and get some fresh air like yo I said. I’m happy you’re doing good thank you for always supporting, I got your back!

Sorry about your job. You will find another. Cravings pass, thankfully. I’m having them tonight. Ugh.
Glad you posted and did other things to help yourself!
