Jil, I'm sorry to hear you feeling that void. My 1 glass of wine progressed into 1 bottle every night. I've always felt a void/inner loneliness my whole life, and during that drinking period (6 years) it was continuous and more prevalent. Sober now 2 months, I attend LR meetings and joined meditation class. I have experienced a shift that I cannot explain. I no longer feel that deep painful void. Maybe because I'm making new friends just like me (alcoholic) and friends through meditation class (same interests). I searched many ways to resolve that lonely feeling to no avail and now suddenly...

I just wanted to share my experience with you, because I so understand your situation and I hope you find your niche. Best wishes to you.
