Give yourself time to heal PD. If, like me, you drank for years, it may take a little while to recover the real you again, but you will.
I was so deep into my alcoholism I didn't even realise the real me was missing, so you're somewhat ahead of where I was.
I have the best of both worlds now.. the real me plus my experiences of addiction and beyond...
I can finally say I love who I've become
