You are definitely not alone. I was sober for 6 months and then started slipping up. Day one again today. Hoping for a better result this time. Best of luck. Please reach out to me for help. Or maybe i can reach out to you for help. :heart_eyes:

Some people don't understand but it's just not their reality.

Just don’t let alcohol take your power. I have been sober for over 7 1/2 years now and I still struggle every day with loneliness. You are not alone. None of us are. It is just hard to convince ourselves that we feel safe without something to occupy us like alcohol. You can take the power back more and more with every day of sobriety.

I just joined this site today and I can see it being very helpful for my loneliness. Alcohol and drugs are coping mechanisms and I recently quit vaping so I don’t have any of them anymore and it is really tough.

I was intelligent and an expert on everything. In sobriety, I learned to be quiet, and to listen to what others have to say !
