stressed, confused, craving drugs/drink, scared about what lies ahead, but I had a good detox. It's like I'm learning how to live again, it's like I'm learning how to do **** sober

It does get better. All you have to do is try and remain sober. Some days I could scream, cry grieve and life is a bummer, but it passes and other days life is wonderful

Actually, very glad to hear the last sentence...and the other stuff is normal

Fear is a very real and common characteristic of many alcoholics....and sometimes drives us to drink....BUT....you can do this...and it definitely DOES get better!
