Sobriety and Cravings
I have been sober from drugs for 7 years and alcohol 18 months.
Sobriety is a hard journey with so many speed bumps and detours.
I have to insert lots of mindfulness & new hobbies, foods, trips, at times for addiction cravings.
But Sobriety and healing is possible.

@wonderfulKermit1936 Hey Kermit! Being sober from drugs and alcohol for such a long time is no small fleet. It’s quite a lot of hard work and determination.
You deserve to be told that you did an amazing job to have reached so far.
Keep up the great work and thank you also for all your dedication on Cups so far and for lending a listening ear. Your dedication is truly admirable, and I wanted to take a moment to express my appreciation. 💓

Hey. I am currently battling with alcohol addiction. It was quite honestly very innocent or never felt like a problem until it became one. I've been routinely drinking in various ways for several years now. Once again it all seemed innocent. Until I realized I'd drink when socially uncomfortable. When having a "stressful" day. When just having a nice date night. I got to a point where once my father passed and was falling ill it became very hard not to turn to alcohol to "calm" down. I've gotten better and looking to see it as a small gain as for past couple months I've stopped drinking during week days. I am struggling currently when visiting my romantic partner bi weekly. Going out for drinks. So just seeking support and help from those whom overcome the experience.
