Loneliness is the biggest problem I have my brother passed away recently and I haven't really been a part of my family for a lot of years I got to say goodbye to him but I wasn't the same we weren't in a good place and it was really awkward and so being by myself for the past 30 years has been rough but being sober for the past couple years trying to connect with family again is even harder and Christmas is the worst I have to struggle with it one day at a time

Lana . You're not alone on the one. There are a lot of us, including myself, that are struggling. It seems that we all are. If I had a house big enough I'd have you all over so we can be lonely together and enjoy a meal and fellowship together.
Lana, you’re definitely not alone. Sorry about your brother. Similar situation here with my dad. But I was able to make a living amends and forgive myself.
I made new friends and family here in the programs.
Are you working on the 12 steps with a sponsor?
I still work the 12,, even after 15 years of sobriety.
I’m here if you want to talk
