Good to see you still posting Darragh!
Yes, for me I was an emotional mess, very isolated, lonely and sad. I had a bit of paranoia as well but now I realize it was just another aspect of my disease. Does it get better, you bet!
I hope you will look for a means of support, there are many options and you have to decide what works for you. Stick around and listen, and you'll get a lot of suggestions. Keep an open mind, and stick with it! Today you won't drink! Awesome!
