Hi,
Welcome back! And, yes, I remember you.
I agree with you that facing life as a sober person is very scary. I was absolutely scared of what I would found when I had to look at myself without any safety net. And, you know, some of things I had believed about myself weren't true. In many ways, I wasn't the person I had pretended to be. But, in other ways, I was happy with what I found. All in all, I found I person, who was far from perfect, but a person that I could begin to like.
I'm glad you're back.
