I used to wonder that at the beginning and thought people were exaggerating.
Happy sober people who were living amazing peaceful lives. But it has turned out true for me and no one is more surprised than me.
I did have a spiritual awakening and this certainly turned things around a lot. Time is also time is a great healer and my body needed to be rid of the alcohol completely and this can take quite a few months
Hang in there
