21 months sober. Starting to isolate again and worried of relapsing

That’s always been a struggle of mine. Only time I’m getting out and being with people is for A.A. meetings which is great. It’s especially tough with the holidays coming and not being able to see my kids

As hard as it sounds reach out people do listen
You have come sooo far you recognize the fact you are isolating again try not to be isolated goto to the library do something nice for yourself goto a meeting do anything to keep yourself from isolating and relapsing look to your higher power
Becareful friend... im 3 years sober now.. its hard from me to not isolate
21 months is a big deal. That kind of time doesn’t just happen by accident. You worked hard to get here.
It might be time to shake the routine a little. Can you hit a different meeting? Message a brother from the app? Even just talk it out here? You don’t have to struggle alone
Isolation lies, it tells us nobody would understand. But we do. You’re not alone, not now, not on our watch.
You are so right about isolation being a lier. It tells me I don’t have anything to offer, and no one cares. Pick yourself up by the bootstraps and just keep trudging along.
