Ciara, I am so speechless. I will never give up. Thanks 
Thank you Hilary, thank you. I can’t just imagine how much am happy talking here. I felt stronger since I joined this app.
Amen Steven 
It is well Tina. I would love to share. 
I had to start accepting loneliness sometimes as serenity. I considered myself the life of the party even though at the end I was isolating myself in my apartment or hotel rooms and the alcohol and drugs were my company. I also had to accept that I am extremely selfish and self centered and want to be around people for my own benefit, not concerned with how they might feel. I do agree with what has been said, it is a hard part of sobriety but maybe one that you need, I did. The loneliness caused me to get uncomfortable and reach out to my higher power more, meditate more. The social stuff is coming back because I joined a sober community that hold events and I volunteer with them. Just try to see it from a different perspective. If I was around people as much as I used to I would be manipulator them and trying to control outcomes and that is why I hit rock bottom in the first place. Just know, you are not alone, but the uncomfortableness of it might push you to try something new, something you don’t necessarily want to do.

Thank you Jason:pray:
Same here. Really working hard to focus on my goals. I have to write. It's a goal I've had forever and done a lot. It helps to have this as it takes up hours of my day and fills the void from drinking (reading, researching, writing). Do you have anything you're super passionate about you can focus on now? All my best brother. You will get through this!
