The ease returns...

So, I just posted about my sober vacation. I am really proud of myself for it and had a great time, really enjoying the time.

There was, however, something weird about it. I felt a little off. Now, as I sit here and read up on the forums, I am starting to feel at ease again. The thoughts of being able to drink safely someday are subsiding. The normalcy of being sober is returning.

This place is my sober support system. I do not have a single friend in recovery. I have many supportive people in my life who have my best interest at heart, but it's not the same as having another person in recovery to talk to, relate to, etc. Even hearing the stories of relapse help me to be stronger.

Thanks, SR, for returning peace to my mind.
