Since I’ve been clean, life has got kind of boring. I know it’s only the beginning and I know it’s miracles at the end but sometimes I feel alone I think about going out there but I know that’s not the way to go. I know I gotta take it one day at a timebut I guess I just gotta meet new people who are in recovery and that’s why I join this community to meet new people so I just want to say hey everybody my name is Quentin.
Hi Quentin, I know that struggle quite well. It's not easy. However, for you and your on-going sobriety's sake, please get to a meeting. Be it at a church, NA, AA, online or live. This helps us get out of our own thoughts and gets us to interact with others. I hope and pray this helps.
Yeah it can get boring you need to find other things that bring you happiness and enjoyment that really helps me
If you need someone to talk to I'm here ,hope things get easier
Boredom.....one of the many many many reasons i used although i never really needed a reason..... Engulf yourself in the new way of life Sobriety offers, the new friends,the meetings, the conferences, the same person will use again its a change of life and person....Tell yourself your own story, remember it's cunning baffling g and powerful and if u think u have enuff will power....take an ex lax and will ur self not to s#@T, it's the same exact situation when we take that 1st hi,1 is to many, it is the start of the snowball and 1000000000 not enuff, we're never satisfied. Play the tape all the way thru and remember even if we could control it it's still killing us....pray, reach out, go to a meeting, read, but play the tape,all the way thru make ur new life ur only way of LIFE, JUST FOR TODAY
Welcome! Gym, church, volunteering, starting a band, these are some things to li em up the days.
Keep going Quentin
