    I've been on a streak of about 23 days now without relapsing. However, I am experiencing urges more so now than I have ever felt previously during this streak, and I am terrified that I am going to relapse. Do you guys have any suggestions to keep me off that path?

  3. Keep going. I'm sorry to say this, but things will get worse. There are lot of posts out there on how to deal with urges, but in the end it is you who will have to endure the pain.
    Stay strong, you are doing great.

    Oh yea man, week 3-4 was pretty tough. Grit your teeth and power through it. Weeks 5+ get progressively easier because the volume of urges decreases, but you do still get the occasional strong urge that pops up that you need to watch out for. It can help to have some hobbies on hand you can quick fire to have something else in your hand other than your ham. Some interesting nature documentaries and etc can help too, or anything in general you’d like to learn e.g.
    new skills.

    23’s a good stretch so far, keep it going!

    I see you are rare guest here. So my first recommendation for you is to visit us everyday and actively study the materials as well as cases from your brothers on the same path. The other one is to get sufficient and good quality sleep everyday.;)
