MrBen, I understand your post and I appreciate it. I am on Day 39 and while physically I feel great, emotionally I have been all over the block. I am not going to lie, sometimes the chipper, Pollyanna posts really get under my skin and annoy me (but I think I am at the irritable stage anyway). Other days, though, I really need the
hope of the perky, Sobriety is Awesome post. That is what is so great about SR. We don't have to feel so alone with everything we are going through, because others are going through it, too. Your post reminded me that yes, sobriety is worth it and much better than the alternative, but at the same time it not going to always be (I was going to say wine and roses, but that is highly inappropriate) a bowl of cherries. So, I thank you!
