Hello all. So I had 6 months sober, then went back to almost exactly where I was before. Today is day 2 no alcohol and im so full of anxiety and fear right now I want to crawl out of my skin. I hate this feeling I want to feel strong again, and safe. I was drinking and numbing myself again for a good 5 months. I know I did it before, but I dont remember how long it took to feel better. Thanks for reading this, i hope to make more friends this time around, feeling lonely was a big factor for me before.

Yeah, I have my kids (2 1/2 and 17) the little one def keeps me busy, and friends..but a lot of friends dropped off when I got sober. All of a sudden I found I wasn't invited to movie nights, or dinner nights...etc. I have to prepare for that again

And thank you, yes, we can do this
