Hang in girl!!
It takes a min or two to think of using and a min or two to re-direct yourself.
The things that makes me crave is Boredom, Loneliness or NOT having that old fake energy to get my work done..I still have to take some baby steps now & then even after a couple of yrs. The BIG thing is to try to stay busy, which it sounds like you do. Wishing you all the best and I know it is a hard road to hold but it does get a bit better. Support, Support & more Support!!
Bless

Hey Girl  greate to see you great to see you clean....cravings are very real to addicts it is part of the obsessive thoughts we get...the real key here is to work your program call your sponce and hit as many meeting as you can  your among N/A friends and it safe to share your doing great  I wish I could tell you it will go away they dont  but you dont have to act on them  with time they do get farther and farther inbetwin and if you keep working the progam you will lose the desire to use  im proud of you for not using this is the time all your hard working with the progam works out keep in mind we all are faced with the same dission   will I use today or stay clean  your making the right dession...................Gnarly

Don't let your feelings determine your actions, let your actions determine how you feel. Way to go reaching out, you are getting the hang of this thing!

Its not the thoughts you have its the actions that follow. Its good to get it out and talk about it, did something happen that made you feel like this? Remember play it out in your head, you have come so far a couple pills isn't worth messing all of that up and it would just leave you wanting more. Play out in your head all the bad things that would happen from just taking one. It would just start your addiction again and it wouldn't take long for your whole life to be a mess again, so not worth it! You are doing so great please don't mess that up!
