Day 13 here. I'm dealing with some really tough stuff with my girlfriend right now, and I can't deny it's because I'm not drinking and am forcing myself to deal with my feelings instead. I'm not sure if we'll get through this, nor am I sure I want us to. I just don't really know. But at the very least, I do know that drinking isn't going to solve anything, and getting through this is probably going to be a huge step in my recovery.
