Think I've hit what I can only describe as a weird time on my sobriety journey.

I'm sure I don't want to drink, get the odd thought that I'd like to but know deep down I don't want to go back down that route.

Just over 70 days and it just seems to be getting a bit harder rather than easier.

Think its the fact it seems a never ending journey that makes it harder, if someone said to me that if I got to 100 or 200 or even 300 days and you reached the end, you were cured it would be so much easier.

Guess nobody told me this would be easy.

Just having a wee moan to myself.

i have had times like that....but it did get better!

The important thing is to vocalize it to someone as you have.

I try to think of all that I am learning and how things are going to change and change and change as i walk this path!

But then again.....i do whine alot too

it was like that for me around that time too Fizzy...and several times after that as well LOL - it's normal

just focus on a day at a time - it's hard to do, but just try and gnaw off bite size pieces, mate

sometimes it just feels that way Fizzy...being sober is still new...the unfamiliar path...the longer you walk it the more familiar it becomes...the more appealing..soon you realize you walked it without thinking about it...

It takes some time to become dependent on alcohol so I imagine it will take some time to recover from it and be stronger. I know you can make it. I have to take it one day at a time and only focus on today. You're allowed to have a 'wee moan'! AFter all, you're still sober!

Hang on, It can't be this hard forever.

I think it's normal to find that the road to recovery is not a straight line. At least for me, it wasn't. But, it does get easier to deal with as time goes on. Hang in there!
