Someone once told me we no longer can afford the luxury of feeling numb - and altho that sounded a little harsh to me at the time, it's right.
What I found was tho that the more feelings and experiences I faced sober the less feeling numb mattered to me.
It took a little longer than 2 months but I actively do not want to feel numb now - I even hate it at the dentists.
Keep meeting life full on and I reckon you'll get to that point too GiraffeGirl
