What other things can you think of that tend to soothe you? Does music soothe? Does working with your hands, i.e. a craft? Does reading?
Something that REALLY soothes me are the CD's of different nature sounds like the ocean, the tide rolling in, a gentle rain, thunder, a rain forest, etc. There's a whole bunch of these CD's in a packet and it's not real expensive either. You can find them anywhere they sell CD's. I just sit back & close my eyes and listen to one of those, and OH BOY -- that really calms me. In fact, they even have put me to sleep!! These are healthier soothing tactics than using drugs or sex. LOL
Congrats on your 4 months of sobriety!!! That's great! And you did it one day at a time, right?  So did I. lol Hugs, Lee
