Illi, I'm almost 22 months sober and I feel the same from time to time. Just yesterday, the 4th of July I was down. Unhappy for no particular reason when I have every reason in the world to be happy. So many wonderful things have happened since becoming sober. I am very grateful. In a perfect world I could join a program and help others or my community. Theres only so much time in the day though when you have little ones to take care of and work beckons.
I think riding these feelings out is a perfectly good option as they do tend to pass. I feel completely different today. Very content. Fortunately, it never comes down to choosing a drink.
Thank you for the post. I needed to relate. Best to you.
