Hi and welcome.
My expectations when I first stopped drinking were far from accurate, life continued with or without me and I needed to learn methods of coping with good as well as bad emotional situations without escape to the alcohol fix I’d used for so long.
Many things we look for when getting sober take time to achieve because of the results of so much time we consumed alcohol which is not the health fluid we thought it be. It has damaged a lot of our system and we need time to repair back to health.
Hang in there as it’s well worth it!
BE WELL
