Thank you so much for the advice everyone. It's greatly appreciated.
Since my original post, I have enrolled in school. It won't start until January so it still gives me a little time to get ready before such a commitment. I know that things will continue to improve if I have something to do everyday.
I went to church for the first time since getting sober this past Sunday. I really enjoyed. I have struggled with my spirituality over the years. I am not one of these die hard "religious" people (I am from GA, so I am surrounded by them) but I am spiritual and I believe that I have to work harder at this for recovery.
I am planning on starting celebrate recovery next Thursday. I am avoiding the AA meetings around my home bc I have too many "get high buddies" that go to these meetings and I think it may be a trigger for me.
One of the strangest things that I have realized is that literally everything in my life revolves around pills. If I went to the store, if I made any type of social plans, even having enough energy to clean house thoroughly...these would all be things that I felt I couldn't do unless I had an adequate amount of uppers and downers to do the job. So now I am doing these things sober- it's kind of been a new challenge for me, especially with the social anxiety that I have.
The journey continues my friends..
