40 days sober and I feel good. Besides going through

40 days sober and I feel good. Besides going through PAWS and being off Wellbutrin, I’m embracing all the emotions that come at me. It’s been 2 months since I had to put down my pit bull, dexter, and I’ve been missing him a lot lately. He the light during my dark days and I know he’s happy in doggy heaven knowing I’m doing the best I can.

Really sorry about the doggie. I have dogs and we just lost one recently. It’s hard. :purple_heart:

I have a 13 year old dog that I've had since he was 3 months. I've had to give him to my Aunt while I'm in a program. Not a day goes by that my heart aches to hold him. Probably one of the hardest things right now to deal with during this journey in recovery. He's like my child

I understand how you feel. Every time I went into treatment I’d have to leave him with my parents and that broke me. It’s been a few months now and I see the silver lining. As much as I wish he were still here, in a way, he set me free. I’m more focused on my recovery than ever and I have the most sobriety time I’ve ever had. My dog was always able to know when I was intoxicated and seemed really sad when I was. I’m sure he’s happy looking over me as I’m sober and healthy now.
