I don't have any cravings to drink..but I also don't want to leave my house and be social, I have zero interest in dating, zero interest in therapy or AA. Getting up for work is hard but that's a non negotiable. I'm mentally and physically drained everyday pretty much for no good reason. And i don't feel lonely. Wondering if this isolation is normal? I was always a homebody but I'm at the next level. I hate for life to pass me by but don't really care if it does.

Isolation is definitely part of recovery! You’ll get there slowly but surely

I'm anti social myself but I make a habit of not not isolating myself mainly to keep out of my own head. To much isolation is virtually a guarantee of relapse for me. At least find a texting buddy that understands you

Give it time. We are relearning and rethinking the way we live. The change isn’t easy, however it’s worth it. Hang in there
