feeling lonely was my main struggle in sobriety. i started completely new when i entered AA so i started from ground zero. it took a while but now the network is completely built up. my sponser used to tell me you'll never be lonely if you have God in your life. getting in a routine with meetings and vigorously staying the course for an extended period works wonders. this program has taught me to put one foot in front of the other...even when i didnt want to. my life today is incredible and i give all the glory to God and AA. your doing the right thing.
