Today i feel stressed out i have too much on my mind. Im a little over 4 months clean. I used to just use drugs to self medicate, but now i feel all my emotions. My emotions are harder to handle some days and other days im ok.

@chrissie298022 ... We all get stressed out regardless of the length of our sobriety.
It's how we deal with that stress is what makes us who we are.
As long as we don't go back to our old habits and relapse.
CONGRATULATIONS on your 4 months. Keep up the good work.
All we ask is One Day at a time... You know the drill.
Unfortunately part of being clean is leaning how to deal with the feelings that we've nimpbed out for so long.
For me it wasn't just the numbing it was also the whole angle of never learning how to deal woth my emotion in a healthy manner.
So when I went clean I had feelings that I literally didn't know what to do with..
But that got better. All of it got better...
And in turn, as I got better... my life got better

Trust me when I say I know exactly how you feel. Only I didn't do drugs, I just drank myself to death.
