70

And..... 70.

Doing fine, fine, fine with the not drinking part of all of this. The emotions, though!! I was dulling myself so much for the past whatever years, I forgot how angry anger can be and how sad sadness can be and how frightening scary can be.

I was getting near happy there for a bit, but as always, life took a sharp left turn and left me in the ditch. No matter, I'll be fine, just readjusting yet again to move forward. For that is the ONLY direction there is!!!

Onward.

And again, thanks to the great people here who make every day easier. I honestly would not be at day 70 without you all.

So happy for you, Viking and thankful that you're here fighting alongside me. I'm beginning to feel these same emotions again as well. It's hard stuff and this is where the rubber meets the road. Keep pushing, fighting and posting!

Love you & your posts on 24 hours. We're blessed to have you here!

70 days is brilliant, Viking The road to happiness, like the road to sobriety, is not always a straight one, but you're certainly heading in the right direction

Congratulations! It is worth feeling and walking through the emotions; I felt and still feel that it makes me feel more like an actual human living a real life rather than the one I had fabricated for myself. It becomes easier to deal with each "round" of emotions as you become more experienced and skilled at developing coping mechanisms.
