It sounds like you need to find something that makes you happy to fill that void. What do you enjoy doing, Bluhend? I look forward to each Sunday where I mark another week sober and celebrate with milkshakes. I look forward to my lunch breaks where I can read and post on SR where people truly understand the struggle. When I get home, I look forward to watching an episode of my favorite show and not re-watching the same episode because I was too drunk to pay attention the first time.
What makes you happy, Bluhend? What have you been doing for fun the last 60 days?
I hope you're feeling better!
