New here. Anyways, tomorrow I will have 9 months. I wish could say that things are easier or better for me at this moment. The journey has had its ups and downs but, at least Im still hanging in there.

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 
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

CONGRATULATIONS 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
