I relate....very early sobriety was tough for me because I had to face a lot of things I hadn't faced in a decade.....which, being 27 years old, meant I had to face everything. That is a good thing and a bad thing. I know for me it was overwhelming.
Day by day in sobriety, those feelings got easier to deal with and....even more importantly....life started getting better because making good decisions comes a lot more naturally when we are clear-headed and sober!
