Well, heck yeah! Your whole life has been turned upside down. You've kicked your best friend (addiction) out of your life and you're jonesing over that. Plus, adding insult to injury, the "best friend" is in your ear raising hell over your choices!
Stay the course. See your world from the crazy, upside position it's in. See it from a new perspective and know that you CAN do this!!!

I like notz' perspective change--and the silliness helps even more. Quitting drinking DID turn my world upside down. That Scotch bottle was NOT happy at being left behind!!. It had been my best friend for so long.
If I were you, I'd write the words,
Stay the Course! everywhere in huge bright letters and make that my motto. You can do this. So DO IT.
