I’m not exactly happy or content right now. But my sobriety is an intense blessing. It took nearly two years to understand that those two concepts don’t have to have anything to do with each other for me to get sober. Sobriety doesn’t have to “fix your life.” Being sober is the point, itself.
I think I would be afraid of experiencing the effects or slight buzz of one beer. I guess you could say that I'm afraid of alcohol now, after what it did to me and what could of happened had I continued on.
Enough was enough after going to rehab for a month being away from everything, and just being scared to death of losing it all while I was in there. I think that's exactly what I needed: my personal rock bottom.
Now I appreciate the little things in life much more, and I'm in a much better place.
