Chalm, get something sweet to have on hand.

Alcohol turns to sugar in our bodies. So when we quit injesting it, our bodies crave the sugar, and so we think we're cravin the drink. Its amazing how a little chocolate will help ease the cravings.

I lived with chocolate soy milk in my fridge when I first got sober. Don't know why, but it helped with the cravings a lot. And I kept chocolate nuggets in the cupboard. Whatever is your fancy, get it and have it on hand. Soda works well too.
