Emotions are a part of life, so let them back in and let the emotion 'grand central station' happen. Before long, they will taper into the regular normal feelings all humans have as we live our lives. They may seem a little foreign for now, but that will fade, I'm sure.

At about a month without drinking, I did feel a little emotionally mixed up too. Odd. Then again, on weekends and nights when I drank, I felt emotional too, but I think that was because of the depressing feelings alcohol brought about, mixed with my internal unhappiness for drinking like I did.

In any case, it all tapered off to how I feel today, which is perfectly fine. No more roller coaster rides, just smooth sailing. Most of which is probably due to the feeling that self-control gave me. At 4-5 weeks all that was left were feelings of accomplishment, knowing I made it.

Let them settle into place and you will be so fine!
