hi Ginger -
So very sorry about your loss.
But I have to congratulate you
because you haven't had to drink over it.
IT's okay to feel bad.
It's okay to be unhappy in recovery
it's okay to be angry.
learning that We aren't our feelings
is one of the most important teachings
we receive in early sobriety.
For so many of us
drinking was all about the oblivion.
And you're feeling.
That is a GOOD thing.
Just let it hurt until it doesn't hurt anymore.
The pain will move to it's appropriate place
in your mind and your heart
when it's time to move on.
I'm sorry I don't come here often enough these days
to know if you're in a program of recovery
butr if you are -
this is the time that sponsors are good to lean on.
And they're great for letting you know
when it's time to get back into the game.
*prayers of peace and comfort*
