Frustrated, need to vent
Hey Guys,
This is my second time posting in the forum. I have a little over a month of sobriety right now (barring 2 or 3 nights I took some xanax prescribed to me, though I've since made a resolution not to take unless I'm having a serious panic attack) and for the most part, I'm feeling good.
I've been in a relationship with my girlfriend for over a year now, and though we have had our tribulations, we have a great bond and companionship. She's supportive of me getting sober and we both love eachother very much.
Anyone on here have experience with feeling emotionally distant with their partner in the beginning of sobriety? I'm feeling this a bit right now, although I know it's due in part to my anxiety just wanting to cling onto anything that might set me off. Basically, I'm acting against my own inclinations, trying my best to go out of my way to show her the love I feel for her, but can't quite access as best as I can right now.
Any words are appreciated. Thanks.
