This was true for me too.
Since I have been sober, I have had lots of difficult things happen. My home is in foreclosure, my teenaged boys want to spend more time with their dad, I have had some failed relationships...and I can honestly say I have never been more deep down peaceful in my life. I have a "contentedness" I never thought possible.
Life isn't always easy, but for me life without alcohol is easier.
I hope you find peace, amanda
