Almost 40 days clean. Why am I in a shitty mood for no apparent reason ?

It gets like that sometimes. its weird, we always think we need a reason to feel funky. But, it happens every once in a while even after years of sobriety. Sometimes Iām just in a bad mood. Im pretty sure it happens to ānormiesā too. Maybe take a chill Day, watch TV, read, meditate, take a bath, eat something yummy. or if youāre working a 12 step program give your sponsor a call at some point.

We all have those days. I was sad earlier this week and there was no reason to be. It could be hormonal, due to lack of sleep, stress. I'm glad you had a Netflix kind of day.
Why are you in a shitty mood. Perhaps you should journal write your feelings, you can meditate, do something that can distract you from this feeling exercise, work or hobbie.
I'm 5 years sober and I'm always in a shitty mood. Well that probably didn't help. I'm sorry. I wish you luck!
Some is normal recovery mood. Some is the time. The human body is on cycles of 3, 7, and 40 day rhythms. Every 3rd day is tough as is every 7th and 40th. It is kinda like if you've ever been on a fast at day 1 you fight all day. Day 2 is nothing. Day three you can die of dehydration and going without food is a nightmare. Day seven is even worse but the days between a r e easy.
Thatās an interesting point I mean Iām almost a month and a half clean but have those feelings
Well damn

Hey, Lana. Hang in there.

See, this is exactly my problem with this app! You people pick and choose the addicts that you want to provide advice, and assistance to! I have literally posted 20 times in the last hour to no avail. But, some female voices her struggles with addiction, and you are all over her. āCome on manā! In the words of our future president.
It feels like this app frustrate you just remember you are always not alone
