Oh, very much so! My emotions were all over the place for the first few months! Hard to say how much of that is from my existing mental health situation, and how much is from early sobriety. But yeah, the first while certainly tends to feel more intense for a while. Change is hard, and your brain needs time to take it all in. Not just with thoughts, but to adapt itself on the neural level.
I knew that, when I was taking a trauma informed course. They use that module and 12 steps.
Iām still not gonna share him with you
And you are also starting to know the person you really are. Itās weird but also fantastic
That sounds good
Right I can totally resonate with that. Like rewiring your brain from acting on impulse for so long. It gets difficult because itās been a coping mechanism. A way to self soothe because we were never shown or we never experienced it in a healthy way. (Maybe not for others but definitely for me).
Infact my Mom would make our relationship okay by buying stuff when she abused me. To make it okay. My Dad was never around and he also bought me and bribe me with $ to soothe the painful relationship we had (divorced/abusive parents).
Starting to be @Jane.c which is also kind of eerie - I will probably freak out some more going forward. Please love me and be patient where I am
You got a friennnnnnnd in me!
Not saying it was brilliant. But I had a chuckle and enjoyed the action. So not a complete bomb!
I never really looked at it that way. Do I even like me? Thatās even the deeper question.
You will, eventually
Got a cup on the go now actually
Have you tried Warmth Tea? Itās got some cinnamon and something else. My daughter she just oozes from how amazing it feels when she needs to relax.
Gooood, maybe ill try some murders ā¦
No I havenāt. If itās not like yogi tea with liquorice?
I hope so. I see photos of me before and I feels off
I feel like I am free falling. Is that normal?
I think it maybe like that LOL!
Canāt say really. As long as it doesnāt give you bad anxiety or fear?
Sometimes like a threat response. Fear of the unknown. Used to people or something controlling me
