Totally get it!! Great job on 42 days. I'd suggest a few things- one, actually get a sponsor; I did wait longer than you as I was looking for someone who regularly "had what I wanted" as I had been advised. Given the mood swings, etc, which are so normal as we start to heal - maybe sooner rather than later is a good idea.

Actively working a program as well as learning to be kind w ourselves in these early days are both so important.

One thing I had to learn early on (and def still have to use!) is to "practice the pause" - you mentioned mis-perceptions of people's words, actions....I found that to be true as I realized that what everyone else was doing or saying just wasn't about me 99% of the time!

Glad you are here - keep going.
