glad u shared, cherry. i hope this too shall pass. try to get busy to get your mind off it. that may help. i used to mop floors to stop thinkin' bout it and they were so clean you could eat off them!  fast forward 20 years sober and it takes a crowbar to get me up and mop! 
just reread your post and a PS, you don't have to set yourself up for using by thinking the "only way out is to use". you do have a choice. keep us posted...we care.
