Cravings
Hi all😊
I noticed a lot of cravings this afternoon/evening. I thought cravings last around 15mins and pass but this felt like hours of cognitive dissonance…
The need I was trying to meet with alcohol - dial down the intensity and get me through the late afternoon/evening, numb the big emotions of overwhelm.. I was aware I was below 50% when I checked in - hungry, tired and mind scattered. I didn’t have a drink but it added extra “noise” unease to my evening I could have done without 🤣 it’s been a while since a craving has popped up and hung around like that/lasted so long, the will I/wont I… I played the tape forward, hydrated and it helped.
I have a family party tomorrow night and I will drive, it’s not bothering me at all. It means I can leave when I want 😎 and I noticed taking alcohol out of the picture actually shows me who I do want to spend my time with and some of them don’t really fill my cup 🤣🤣so it’s not about the alcohol.. what should I dig into or maybe I just let it be.?
Hope everyone is doing ok on their journey 🙏🏻✨
