Good morning, I woke up today and I had cravings

Good morning, I woke up today and I had cravings right away. I’m seven months sober right now and I hate this feeling. It felt like I wasn’t in treatment and I was waking up in my old apartment looking for that hit to start up my morning. I know I’m going to have to deal with this my whole life, however, I’m asking for support and prayers if you believe in praying, if you don’t just some advice, or positive vibes my way. I am a reserved person, I don’t share very much at all but this morning It hit me very hard.

Stay in it! :pray:

Over time the cravings should fade. Stay strong, you got this. I always would start cooking if I had cravings in the morning, it is how I learned to make bread. It kept me busy and who doesn’t like fresh bread in the morning.

Just don’t pick up and this will pass.

Cravings are just a lizard brain temper tantrum. Dismiss and move on. But make sure you are not hungry, tired, lonely, or otherwise distressed. If so, find a healthy response (which never is drinking!). You got this!
