Heavy weekend drinker here. I have been sober for about 3 months now, with only a couple very light moments of weakness. Huge improvement from prior 10-15 years.
I was kind of expecting that life would feel a little less like a blur once I stopped drinking. Not looking for a huge nirvana moment, just that things would come into focus a little more. That doesn’t seem to have happened, and seems to have gone in the other direction if anything.
Was I wrong to expect a little greater clarity? What have others experienced at this stage?
No…I am not in a program and do not expect to go that direction, so that is not the solution or information I am seeking. I am very happy for those that have found success on that path.
Thanks for listening and for any thoughts you can share.
