Can’t get out of my head. currently in treatment. Idk if I’m bored or what. Just feel discontent. Anxious. Etc. feel like there’s just a huge hole in me and idk how to fill it. I know drugs and alcohol isnt the answer I just don’t know what to do with myself. Trying to find happiness. In a limbo state right now.
Hi, Daniel. You can be of service. That's what we do in recovery. Many organizations seek help this time of year.
Hey Daniel, glad you’re in treatment! could you bring these feelings up in any of the groups there? Are they taking you to meetings? These feelings are totally normal!!! I felt the same way. These are the feelings I’d constantly try to get away from by using substances. my suggestion is finding something to fill the hole. For me I use 12 step based programs, meditation, service work, friendship, creativity, therapy, etc to build a new life & ways to counteract that feeling without turning to substances.
I am talking about it in therapy and groups they tell me pretty much what u told me so I’m trying to stay positive
I appreciate all your input
Hi. I'm a recovering alcoholic. I've been in treatment twice. Finally after being put on pills that weren't working my Doctor from rehab started me on vivitrol injections every month. It has been amazing so far. Malbe ask your doc
Thank You
