Wow, you are indeed doing a lot!
In my first 6-7 months I was trying to get an A in AA and did very little right. I was trying to be perfect and learned I had to give myself a break and breathe. No one was keeping score.......
Just because a sponsors experience is different than yours in a 4th step doesn't make you less feeling or a sociopath. It's your journey, not hers and your mileage may vary!
Things change quickly in new sobriety - look at how far you've come in a sort period. Try to keep things in perspective - tomorrow you may start to feel differently.
Growth is painful - Your post reminded me of the Grapevine quote from Bill W
"Suffering is no longer a menace to be evaded at any cost. When it does come, no matter how grievously, we realize that it too has its purpose. It is our great teacher because it reveals our defects and so pushes us forward into the paths of progress. The pain of drinking did just this for us. And so can any other pain."
