Just have faith that the sober you will be able to deal with them. It will be a little awkward at first, at time painful, depending on what you are dealing with.

I struggled too, at the beginning. But I was convinced that drinking wouldn't resolve it, and held on to the belief that my recovery would give me the tools to handle the newness of sobriety.

And it did.
