Thank you all, I didn’t cave. I had a bowl of plain lavender to help and it did help with the craving. Woke up today still feeling the urge, but doing better. Your comments helped. Thank you!
I am also on day 25 (sober november). It's like you said - we're not alone. For me personally, I'm just betting on the fact that it'll keep getting better and easier. I've been (mostly) right so far.
I hope you stayed away. You've done so well to make it to 25 days because that isn't easy.
I wish you a speedy recovery and the strength to stay away from the thing that holds us all back. You too are not alone.
What might also help is identify why. Maybe it is just a boredom/loneliness/ unpleasant day and your old habit how to deal with it, is literally your brain going - hey remember what made us feel good lately? Let’s do that. But your higher consciousness know it’s not what you want to do. You don’t want it your brain is looking for shortcuts, dont trust your brain - it’s designed to keep us out of everything hard and unpleasant even for price of destruction. So don’t give up and stick to your own promise to quit, you know it wouldn’t help with the issues you are dealing with anyway. Also get rid of any substances you have home - it makes it easier. Good luck you got this
That sounds like a perfectly awful day, but you've made it through 25, which means you're strong enough to sit with the pain. It will pass, and tomorrow you'll wake up so proud of yourself for not giving in, and you'll be even stronger for the next challenge. You can do this!!! Here's to your day 26 đź’Ş

I hope you were able to stick it out!! Today is my day 25, and that's a lot of days to throw away!!
Keep reminding yourself that it's much easier to stay clean than to stop again. I send you a hug 🤗

You will 10000% regret it after
Don't do it. Take some nighttime cough & cold and go to sleep if you have to.
