Advice?

Struggling here. Girlfriend of 5 years ended things. Been sober 3 months now but this despair is overwhelming. Starting life over and staying sober seems so much to deal with. Any advice?

Anthony, sorry things aren’t working out w your lady. It sucks! I went through divorce at 6 months sober. Plus my business was failing and it was overwhelming to say the least.
I’ll tell you that it’s all going to pass! And in my experience I came to believe it was all a BLESSING! I stayed sober and got deep into my step work and became a much better version of myself. After 14+ years of solid sobriety. There have been many beautiful ladies that I loved and share wonderful experiences with. My business has changed and had its ups and downs, but I’m finally doing what I love and I’m happy.
If you ever want to talk, I’m here.

Thank you Danny.

Hey man, get your a$$ to as many AA meetings as you can in your free time. Just take up free space with those meetings.

I ended a relationship last summer and it almost made me relapse. Staying busy really helps. I found some local groups I could go to, joined a church and hit the gym. Staying busy every week was key to staying sober and getting over some of the grief.
