It’s been awhile
Another day sober 💪🏻
I’ve been working out after work everyday and it’s occupied my time because I get home late. Tonight is the first night I come straight home and it’s awkwardly lonely. I will admit that it crossed my mind to just stop and get some wine. My mind said “Nobody will know…just a little bit.” I’m happy to say I didn’t give in. A little bit is opening the door to mayhem. I’d end up drinking the weekend away and end up sad and depressed all next week. That doesn’t sound like a road I want to go down. Today is the first day I haven’t cried…I think I’m getting a little stronger.

Another day stronger! I’ve been consistent with working out. I’ve joined a group dance fitness class and it’s really helped to distract me. I’m still working to hold my head high and have confidence. I feel like a dark ball of gloom. Sobriety feels great but the heartache takes over. When I drank I didn’t think nor could I feel my emotions. Now I feel absolutely everything.
I feel the AV trying to take over. One day at a time.

You're doing great, TA. It's really hard to deal with the onslaught of emotions in early sobriety. Dancing sounds like a good outlet. And, have faith that you will be able to manage the feelings.
