Last night wasn't as bad as the night before because I got on the phone with a very supportive friend. Still having waves of anxiety and still very tired but otherwise feeling really good. Checked out AVRT. Some of it makes sense. I like the AV bit and how to address it objectively.

Each day, each hour, each minute feel different from the one before. I could sob, I could laugh, I could sleep, I could climb a mountain...and that's all before lunch!! I hope these feelings level out a bit with time but I understand they need to surface after years of drowning.

Congrats on the progress. Yes they do level off... And they may come back. I have had. Both in various attempts. I let them wash over me when they do not cooperate.

Keep up the good work! Try to remember to enjoy life as we all progress.

Congratulations on day 4! I'm right there w u! And I've been crying a lot, feeling sad & anxious too. I think you're right though...it all needs to surface. Hang in there!

Yay! A day 4 buddy :-)). Being at work helps, being with my kids helps (50/50 custody), being on here helps but being alone sucks a lot. I need to start suggestion sober activities with my friends. They are good people and will be into it but I kinda feel like hibernating. That's not good. Your thread on the beginner's AA meeting caught my eye. That seems like the best way to go.
