Hi. Welcome to Loosid. It is perfectly normal to be having these feelings, time will help them fade. But so will support from others. Do you attend an AA meeting? Or have someone you can talk to?
I am here if you’d like to talk. You are doing amazing. I’m so proud of you!

It's OK to feel a little guilt but it's also OK to contain that and not let it drown you. You're worthy of good things. Totally normal to feel that your feelings are heightened. Things die down. Hang in there

I agree with all of the above.
This too shall pass.
Congratulations on putting down the drink.
You need to keep in mind that for the time you have been drinking your emotions and feelings have been suppressed. Now that there is no more or little alcohol in your system all these pent up feelings and emotions are starting to rise to the surface.
Don't freak out over it. Embrace it. This is the new you being built.
