Thank you to everyone for your words of encouragement!
I have a ton of ideas for activities (drawing, painting, candle-making, photography, aerobics, tennis, yoga, dance, cooking, etc.). But then, as usual, I find myself seeking instant gratification, then getting overwhelmed and frustrated.
I also have generalized anxiety disorder that I am currently trying to address for the first time without alcohol in the picture, so searching through doctors and psychiatrists also makes me frustrated.
I feel like I have lost so much time that I want to do everything at once, and while I realize that is not possible it is hard for my ever-racing mind to stay focused on one thing at a time. For now I am just focusing on at least going for a walk every day and doing a lot of reading.
I recently moved to a new city and I think I may look into area AA meetings again, because I'm sure there are tons and tons of different places here. I am bound to feel comfortable somewhere!
Thanks again!
