Allowing myself to be vulnerable is not easy for me. As of late I’ve been mentally exhausted thick clouds of anxiety with growing depression. I can’t pinpoint what is the cause. Thankfully I have a job that gets my mind out of self. But when I get home it picks up where it left off. Let go and let god is my only vice. ODAT.

Hi Donta, I was a mental mess the first 15 months of my sobriety. I know now there were things in my life that were holding me. As those things started to leave my life my mental health got a lot better. For me, it was my ‘good’ job and my marriage. I quit drinking to save those things. Now that they are gone, I am doing better now than I have in years and I am filling for divorce tomorrow, something I thought I would never do. That’s my experience. Stay strong dude, one foot in front of the other.

Let go and let God is fine. But there needs to be action behind it. Without the action I don’t get relief. Get into the steps with your sponsor. There is a solution. But we have to take action by working all 12 steps.
I’ve completed the 12 steps twice during my 3 years 11 months and 1 day of sobriety. I’m in a funk I know can be temporary by my choice.

I understand. When I am in those funks I say “let go LG” but I’m still stuck unless I act on it.
I suggest you read pages 82 and 83 of the Big Book. “The spiritual life is not a theory we have to live it”
The 12 steps are lived and worked on a daily basis.
