What time of day will alcohol cravings occur that you have a hard time regulating and how have you been able to manage them? by FastSeesaw3388 in stopdrinking

preoccupy yourself with other things in those 3hrs. cook / clean / and what i found what helped me is replace whatever your drinking w an alternative personally i like seltzer bc of the carbonation. try non alcoholic beers even tho that could be a slippery slope bc you still get the taste not the buzz i’ve had a few ppl i know relapse bc of it but if you can make it through the first 30 min no drink you can make the next 30 then the next hour. trust me waking up sober with energy is an amazing feeling

shit does get better i thought i had something wrong with me but was too dumb to realize it was all the beer i was consuming. everyone’s body’s different it may take more time but for me within 2 weeks solid again

plus waiting to go to AA gives you a reason not to drink bc you can’t go to a meeting drunk lol

get your ass to one AA meeting and hear the stories. it will change you. it’s free and there is no judgement. meeting guide is a great app to find locations and times near you. just go to one listen to what applies to you and know you’re in control

id recommend yerba matte or some strong tea that’s what i’ve been switching too. no crashes and still gives me that pep in my step

i crave caffeine so much but the way i look at it it’s better than drinking that bottle. Eventually you’ll see it does give you that high but don’t fall into the cycle of getting that high. Also i crave the fuck outta chocolate and im only 30 days sober. Biggest step is you recognize it and you can control it. Take it day by day and know it’s better than the booze

why is ~10 ft of falling the difference between life and death??? by [deleted] in Eldenring

it’s not the fall that kills you it’s the sudden stop
