Welcome to Sober Recovery.

How long have you been clean and sober?

Our emotions are a roller coaster in early sobriety. I used drinking like a cork to keep my anger bottled in. When I got sober, I could jump into a rage at a moments notice.

Just knowing what I was going through helped. Not reacting to the anger was important. I allowed myself to be angry, I didn't allow anger to drive me to make stupid decisions or take actions I would later regret.

Google "anger management techniques"
