I experienced a sort of euphoric elated feeling just before month 3, after coming out of the darkness from sheltering myself the first 2months not drinking. At that time I had the feeling of "oh this is great, totally doable, everything seems like this will work perfect". I hit a wall shortly after when I came up against my first real obstacle. I had no tools.

It has been slow momentum of building since. This is the first time in my sobriety I have felt confident after months of building. It's a daily fight, some easier than others. I now go a few days without thinking about it, whereas before was an everyday obsession. But it's work.

I appreciate your feedback. Thanks for reaching out, and who knows, maybe your that someone to talk to about it.
