Hi Marie - no need to apologise! Welcome to the club!
Unfortunately, I can't offer any suggestions on how to deal with the craving, because I still crave. Really, the only thing that makes me even attempt this is the fact that I'm going on holiday at the end of July, and I want to lose some weight before I go - or people will scream and run away when they see me in a bikini!
Also, I had an hour with a therapist a few weeks ago, and she made it very clear what would happen to me if I continued drinking at the rate I was. Things like brain damage - frightening stuff like that.
But it's very difficult. I fell back last night, and drank half a bottle of vodka, then had some wine. This morning I felt like nothing on earth. I remembered another reason why I wanted to stop - I'm fed up with feeling so sick the following day!
Anyway, so tonight I'm back to square one. It's 10 at night, and I've not had a drink. Tomorrow's another day!
Lisa
