Sobriety is not only about not drinking, it's about figuring out how to live without alcohol, because there are still going to be ups and downs.
If like me, your toolbox for life only contained a bottle of the hard stuff, when I took that away the toolbox was pretty empty, I then needed to fill it with new ways to cope with the bad and stressful stuff in life.
That's the challenge, but it can be done!!
