A big struggle for me is learning how to be

A big struggle for me is learning how to be a good friend again. I cut everyone out. Now I'm stuck with this person that I don't like to hangout with (myself). I have to learn to love myself before anyone else can. Working on that everyday.

Oh, man, do I feel this one. I haven’t made any friends in sobriety. It’s a big party of me, myself, and I! I hang out with my parents a lot. How cool, right? 33 year old dude making dinner for his folks. What a life. Hey, I’m sober tho!
