Hi Skybird. How long since your last drink? It takes about 2-4 weeks for your dopamine balance to reset. All you can do is stay sober and gradually it will get easier and you'll start to feel better. Hang in there. If you've been sober a while, it might be PAWS (post acute withdrawal syndrome) or maybe you just need to start a journey of self discovery and finding purpose in your new life. Regardless, drinking again won't make anything better. If we find ourselves posting on a recovery forum, chances are things were pretty bad before we stopped drinking. I know that's the case for me. When I first stopped drinking I thought I would die of boredom. I binge watched every episode of Buffy The Vampire Slayer and followed it up with Angel. I watched so much TV early in the piece. Come here and complain as much as you like. We've all been through it and it's better to complain about being sober than going back to drinking. We're here for you.
