Excellent news Dave, well done on storming ahead with energy and motivation, do you plan to apply that in someway over the next week? Keep the momentum going!

Good job sir! I wish I could mentally get where you have gotten IE: positivity and being motivated. I'm not there yet, glad you are doing so well!

It's funny you know because when I posted that I was on top of the world but the next day I just felt so lonely. I'm in a really isolated part of France, in the mountains, the local bar is about 7 kilometres away and that was my main source of socializing most evenings and now it's gone because everyone I know there are either heavy drinkers or alco's like me. I don't want to go there but I miss the contact.
I guess it's just adjusting and trying to accept it's going to be different from now on.
I'm not in any way thinking of going back to drinking it's just sometimes I feel really isolated and away from the real world and people but I'm hoping that'll change with time and I learn to adapt to this new/different life.

Today I feel better.

Dave

What other socialization options are there? There must be something other than that pub right?

Nothing really. Nearest town is 10 minutes away and nothing happens there. It's like a ghost town other than Wednesday morning when it's the market.
I've got a few friends about half an hour away where I used to live but they're all big drinkers.

There's lots of goats here, maybe I should go and talk to them...
