Coping with Fear
Looking for thoughts, recommendations, readings, etc. on dealing with fear in sobriety. Ever since I was a little kid, fear has been my Achilles heel. It used to emotionally paralyze me. In my adulthood, I found that alcohol sent fear packing and I felt great - which is part of why I started drinking so much. Unfortunately, my relationship with alcohol became such that the more I drank, the more I feared. The more I feared, the more I needed to drink. In getting sober, I'm going to need as much spiritual support and strength as possible to overcome all of the fear that rears up without the booze. Any recommendations are much appreciated.
