It is NOT fun to do anything sober, even not fun to have sex or talk to my bf, even to listen to him (& he is very smart & interesting) is NOT fun.
You really need to challenge that mindset.
The first few weeks are not likely to be fun - early recovery isn't. Thats just the blunt truth.
But early recovery is not recovery...things get better.
life without booze is interesting and fun and joyous and can be everything you want it to be
you didn't really answer my question before - what kinds of things do you tell your clients to do when they come to you with these problems?
