I don’t know what to do with myself. So much of my time was related to my addiction. I isolated myself, so my friends are long gone. I find myself in panic mode, not knowing how to make it until tomorrow. I want to close the window shades and sleep away the sadness.
Hi, Me. I'm so glad you are. It's hard how to live again when you have made a drastic change. During this time you will have to figure out who you are. You may have to try several new things. Invite a coworker out for coffee. Attend a cake decorating course. Volunteer.
Though you are sober your life is worth living. You don't have to sleep the days away. Live your life to the fullest.
Hey!! Thats absolutely what I ran into when I got sober. My addiction took a lot of years and I really came out with nobody but my kids. It gets better, going to meetings, using the app, anything to get contact will help. Please make some connections here or locally that you can reach out to just to talk!! Were here for you!
Getting old, the cycle I mean. No one has patience for it. It is sad
I feel you! I’m 39 days sober & clean but now I’m experiencing PAWS. Shit is hard. But I have to say, I laughed more in one week of sobriety than an entire year of drinking and using. Go to a meeting, ANY meeting and talk, reach out, jump In the herd and you will get all the love and support you need right now. This is going to teach you who your real friends are.
