Emotions to PAWS
Emotions to PAWS
I feel a little bit like a child.
I find every few weeks I get all this built up stress and emotion. I won't be able to sleep. I'll be productive but also just frazzled. Then it all comes to a big emotional head, I freak out for a few days, then I'm exhausted and sleep like a rock.
Anyone else? I'm kind of worn out from it. Like a kid throwing a temper tantrum and then needing a nap, but on an adult time frame.

I can relate to that 100%.
These feelings caused me to relapse. I threw that tantrum..
Early sobriety is hard, the only advice I can give is not to consider drinking as an option. It only makes things so much worse.
Give yourself a pat on the back for dealing with these emotions sober. Living life on life's terms.
You are processing, and although it's not pleasant you are learning. Getting stronger.
It will pass friend, life's is hard. You will be so much stronger in the long run

If feelings continue to keep bubbling up, I highly recommend therapy....with a good therapist. Just a thought!
