Early on when I was struggling with life and new in sobriety a sweet lady in my home group told me that I just might be experiencing a spiritual growth spurt. Life isn't always unicorns and rainbows. Some days it will suck unbelievably, but with the tools of AA we don't have to drink over it.
You have a chance to emotional support someone you love. that is an amazing opportunity to show just how much that person means to you. i know when i was drinking i lost out on a lot of those opportunities.
Hang in there and turn it over to your higher power. Your HP may have shut a window, but when doing so he may have also open another door
