6 months on this journey

Today I turn 6 months on AA, I was excited about this but today it’s been really hard for me and I don’t know why. Maybe it is auto sabotage or the idea I’m not “normal” and I will never be. This journey is just starting and talking about my emotions is so complicated, it seems I’m speechless when it’s the moment to he honest with myself. I pray to god to guide me to the right places and people and I ask him to give me the fortress I need to stay sober just for today

Congratulations on 6 whole months of freedom! Its super normal to feel “off” around milestones. I would experience intense emotions and even urges to use around milestones. But then it passes and Id keep plugging away at recovery. We are all here for u if u need to vent or chat to get thru the tough times today. Sending u positive energy ur way :sparkles:

Congratulations on your accomplishments thus far. This community is such an amazing support element and great friends. I find myself thinking “why can’t I be normal” sometimes also, even after 9 months. But what if we are the “normal ones” and everyone else is the “weirdos” lol. But I thank god everyday for giving me another day of sobriety and happiness and ask for strength and courage to face my demons the next day. If you ever need anything, don’t hesitate to reach out to the group.
