Alma….. I get that exactly…. My experience is teaching me that now I feel everything and I would rather feel and go through the struggles than ever lose my entire world ever again because I feel uncomfortable or uneasy….. just be in it…. And it IS difficult but I cheated myself out of learning life by buffering myself from experiences with pretty much anything and everything….. never again I only have to do today …. Yesterday is gone and I am never guaranteed tomorrow and I am NOT unique in that, so just this day :+1:t3:ODAAT, and letting go and letting God…. Everything happens exactly as it is supposed to and it is hard but only today…. I only have to do today….. gratitude in Little things I find is very very good for my head….. and nothing is too little then the bigger things will be revealed

Congratulations Alma.
I too I am a few days away from nine months. I understand ups and downs. But someone once told me, i'm not gonna say it's gonna be easy, but it's gonna be worth it. Hope that helps

@a429611 :tada::tada: CONGRATULATIONS :tada::tada: on your 9 months of sobriety. I have extended kin in Lynchburg. Add me.
Keep up the good work.
Are you working on any type of recovery program?
If you are things will eventually get better
If you're not they will continue to spiral out of control.
Again congratulations on your 9 months. I'm proud of you.

@a429611 If you're refusing to listen to suggestions that people are trying to give you than you are destined to fail.
I've had 9 months. You have not have even come close to 36 years of sobriety like I have. I've seen people like you come and go In sobriety. The inevitable is right around the corner. I wish you luck my friend. God only knows I tried

Congratulations I am new here and to sobriety

Congratulations to you, I’m also new here and I’ll like to meet friends

Good for you!!!

Congratulations on 9 months Alma, you’ve got this and a friend sent me this when I was struggling: Never forget how far you've
come. Everything you have gotten through. All the times you have pushed on even when you felt you
couldn't. All the mornings you got out of bed no matter how hard it was.All the times you wanted to give up but you got through another day. Never forget how much strength you have learned and developed along the way.

Keep it up it's going to get Better I've got 8 months as of the 16th of this month I love it

Congratulations
