I am a little over four months sober it is going great! But with this pandemic going on sometime more lately than not…I am feeling very lonely and unwanted!
Hey, Chad! Keep hanging in there. This too will pass.
I felt lonely in the beginning, too. Don't get me wrong I have my amazing husband and I don't feel lonely with him. Not being able to see family and friends hurt like crazy. Nearly everything was closed.
Some friends and I decided to get creative. I setup a weekly Zoom video call with some friends. Some of my other friends decided to play UNO together via Zoom. I'm not sure of the setup. Maybe you can find instructions so you can connect with family and friends virtually.
And don't forget you have lots of friends here. 
Sorry you feel that way Chad, i felt that too in early sobriety even without a pandemic and going to meetings 6/7 days a week. it should pass with time as you build more sober time and do some work around it either in the program or in therapy. The pandemic definitely has taken a toll tho but hopefully more meetings open up in your area & you can make some connections
Hey im going on 5 months and I still struggle with feelings of lonliness. U have to remember and i know this is going to spund crazy, but u are also going thru some grief. The life u lived for me personally, for 10 years, is gone….friends, everyday situations, etc. Even though its for the best it doesnt make it any less painful. Just hang in there i promise tom will be better
