Steve,

In my experience, there is no such thing as normal in that first year of sobriety. And besides, it's very difficult to judge oneself, especially with a whole new lifestyle and emotional sensibility going on.

So, I trust the action. That has proven to be a far better indicator of my well-being than how I feel about it. If you find yourself getting bored, resentful, non-enthusiastic about the things you have been doing to stay sober, that would be a worry for me.

I'll drive myself nuts trying to figure out if I'm OK or not. The question that matters to me is, "What Step are you on?"
