I have often daydreamed of selling my car and my things and moving to NYC. I love the culture there. I’m not sure I could handle the cold though.
I’ve thought a lot about geographical changes. It could be nice. I think for me though (and as my counselor says) I needed to deal with stuff here. I truly did just want to run away. I didn’t want to deal with the broken relationships here, my job, etc. Maybe that is partly what you are doing, too?
Why not try a different crowd/ 12 step group in NYC? Get some sober time under your belt, deal with some of this stuff, and then move? Just a thought : )
