Anyone else feel their milestones are bittersweet?? Midnight marks 3 weeks without a drink. I feel physically amazing and I am proud of myself but at the same time I just feel like I should feel better. Like why am I still depressed ?? Why hasn't my girlfriend come back to me??? Why do I still feel alone??how come I don't wake up happy every day?? I know it's unrealistic to think everything will be fixed so quickly.. but I'm starting to dread the milestones

Congrats on 3 weeks. The bitter sweet feeling, for me, came from the fact that I felt like something was missing from my life because I started recovery. Once I realized I am not missing out on anything I was able to really learn to enjoy my new life.
