I feel I can relate to that. It was scary for me first facing sobriety. I had a similar thought process, if I give this up, what do I have? It's different now. I don't really know if I can explain. I used to cope and escape from various stuff. And, it was scary to give up that "coping" (albeit unhealhty) skill, and at times it hurt on an emotional level. Yet now...looking back, I wouldn't trade it for anything in the world.
