The thought of all that makes me feel, frankly...sad. And weird. And I don't know how I will get over it.
In early recovery, just think of getting through each day (hour by hour if necessary). With each passing day, it will become a little easier. Try not to worry about the future. That will only cause a great deal of anxiety right now... Welcome aboard and best wishes on your journey.
