I think it's all those things.

I know exactly what you're talking about, and you describe it really well.

is it also the case that it can deaden our emotional range so effectively that we are in effect able to disconnect from ourselves?
At one point in early sobriety I had a distinct feeling that I was coming back together, almost like an Escher puzzle drawing.

Lots of physical and nervous system healing going on. And, yeah. Everything was too fast too bright too loud.

I also had to forgive myself about a thousand times, and try very hard to stay in THIS moment. Not the past or the future.
