Hey Jose,
Sorry you're having a rough time right now!! It happens to all of us and it sucks but it will pass. I find that when I do things for others and or service work, it gets me out of my own self and helping others in any way always makes me feel better!! Benefits both parties I guess.
Keep working your program and stay close to your higher power...you're doing the right things, maybe give yourself a break too. You're allowed to have feelings, feel them, talk to someone close that you trust about them and if you can, share about it in your meetings. Prat, read and physical activity helps me too. Hang in there and good on you for putting it out here!!

Give yourself some grace Jose - it’s OK to feel the way you feel - everyone has their funks - don’t try to make it go away - it will on it’s own - be patient - stay busy - try new things you haven’t done before but have always wanted too - you might not feel motivated but it will make you feel so much better - and always do something for others - works every time :blush:
