Reach out, what are things you like to do? Read? Draw?
I know how you feel stay busy find a good movie pick a project in the basement or spare bedroom or something. It’s just an urge and all urges have a shelf life and eventually it’ll go away but you’re not alone. Just remember that we’re all out here, struggling with the same thing.

You’ll make it through this Melissa! I understand, I’ve been struggling too. If you ever wanna chat, you can message me! I’m a gal 
I think that we all experience this , in different degrees. I understand completely and I am here if you ever need to vent or share something. I'm trying to get a good sober social network going after relapsing. I'm 82 days sober again..... isolation is the worst.
M isolation and loneliness are typical of early sobriety. Reaching out to recovering addicts is imperative. Going to meetings, making new friends in the recovery community, SERVICE and staying focused on my program relieved my loneliness. I built a new life! The old life of using is empty. Don’t sit there alone, you’ll never be happy.
Get and stay in your new life! It’s waiting for you to take action.
I’m here if you want to talk.
I'm so sorry for what you're going through, I wish you swift healing and connection.
Sweetheart, I’m so sorry. Isolation sucks. But I’ve tried reframing it…like I’m isolated…but is this my version of God’s way of telling me “hey I want you to meet who you are…”?
-
CONGRATULATIONS on your 231 days of sobriety. Keep up the good work. - Are you working on any type of recovery program?
- IF you're working on any type of recovery program get involved with it and go to meetings, start reading the recommended books as well as start working the suggested steps.
- Start working with another alcoholic who is struggling just like you.
- if you're not working on any type of recovery program and doing this all on your own then yes you'll continue to struggle and be lonely.
Just remember as long as you're doing it by yourself you'll always be lonely.
As long as you're doing it with other people then you won't be lonely.
The choice is yours.
It's never going to always be easy , the isolation catches up to the best of us sometimes. But ...... you're not alone. I'm here if you ever need to chat or vent. Contact me anytime. I just might need you one day so stay strong my friend. I believe in you.

A zoom meeting helps.. happy 24! You got this!
It took isolation to get my attention, God was reaching out to me and I found him. I'm now 174 days clean and sober and haven't struggle with my addictions. I just surrendered and let God power and love guide me. Hope this helps
