I lost my sobriety of last year at 4 months (and I too am just past that mark now). I do believe it is a difficult time in the process. And ya know..I can't help but wondering if part of this is a "worth" issue. So many of us struggle with our low self worth and esteem in recovery.
All these wonderful things are happening as a result of sobriety and perhaps a part of you doesn't feel "worthy of them"..which is of course part of our addiction.
You and I are both in early sobriety and therefore we will continue to face tests..sometimes out of nowhere.
Alternatively, the AV seems to find any old excuse to try and persuade you to feed it. Look how good your life is going..why not have a drink?
I'm so glad you posted on this... I was just reading about "shame" yesterday from Brene Brown. She was saying that "shame exposed" is shame removed. Shame lives in darkness and secrecy..
So perhaps you have felt shame for having these cravings..well guess what...you just exposed it....
