Today marks my 6 months sober.. Part of me feels really happy and proud and physically I feel a lot better and my head is definitely a lot less fuzzy. But I'm definitely finding it hard. Last night I had really bad cravings & I'm finding it hard to deal with all of the emotions that I'm suddenly feeling instead of numbing them out with alcohol. I know I'm definitely better off sober and that this is the path I want to be on - I'm just finding it hard right now. I've been letting the spirituality part of my program slide a bit, which has probaboy been a mistake & I need to get back to that. But overall I'm a lot clearer than I was 6 months ago and feel, most of the time, that I can deal with life.
