I'm just having a really hard time emotionally right now - I'm crying like crazy, It's like I don't know what too do with all of the time that I used to spend drinking. And now that I'm out of work and not drinking I have all this time on my hands that I don't know how to fill. Any hobbies / interests that I used to have have long gone by the wayside thanks to booze, and I only have a few friends left & I'm so shy that making new friends terrifies me. While i'm in hospital it's ok because there are groups to go to, but weekends are brutal & I'm really worried about once I get released. So far I'm not having much craving to drink, thank God.

I guess I'm just scared at having to entirely rebuild my life.
