I does get better!!!
I use to be such an outgoing person with the alcohol, loved the bars, loved listening to music, loved my friends, loved boating and golf, etc...
Now that I have been sober for almost 2 years, I don't even think abut my old friends that I use to think I loved, I could care less about them and thier many problems. I can't stand the bars - they are filled with undesireables to me now.
I use to think I was now boring, that I would never have a life again!!! But now it has gotten so much better. I started a magazine, I tried out for a play - and made it! I will be in It's a wonderful life - reherasls have started and the play is nov - dec -so excited! I am trying new things - something I would have never done while I was drinking. I joined Toastmasters,, I am forming new relationship with my kids, I am so much happier!!!
It took me approx 8 months to be really happy again, but what is 8 months out of the rest of my life?? I am experiencing miracles every day - expecting them.
Please don't give up - the best is yet to come!
