44 Days

I know I go over the same stuff constantly, but it really does help me to write and then just hear people's responses. Even if I say the same thing over and over again and get the same responses.

Sometimes I am so happy to be sober, sometimes I am not. I know it is making my life better and I try so hard just to concentrate on that. But I honestly miss being high. The thought of not having a beer again hurts. I wish this was just easy, I know it's not going to be, but I just wish.

Why do I have to miss being high? Why do I have to be a person that likes being high?

Life is going great and I know I am totally more present. But the reason I got high sometimes is because I don't always like being present. Does that sound weird?

I am committed to this, but man, I do struggle.

Thank you for everyone's help. It is always appreciated.

You are grieving. Plain and simple. Allow yourself to grieve but don't romanticize the poison.

The longer I stayed sober beddy and worked on building that new sober life, the more I changed.

I missed being drunk or high for a while too - but the thought of it is repugnant to me now.

44 days is great but it's still early days - keep it going. You'll change too
