When you’re sort of living in a place of peace, i appreciate that peace less, because I don’t have a direct reminder of the discomfort. Does that make sense?? Also, I miss the silly laughing that comes along with drinking wine. The celebratory, carefree feeling that is just different when you are sober. So, any advice?? Really.
I’ll correct this for you: “the celebratory carefree feeling that is just different when you are NEWLY sober.”

That’s all.
