First day sober again feeling sad

Today is my first day sober again and I don’t feel good mentally physically emotionally I’m feeling very sad my two boys have moved in with their dad for a while so I can take care of myself and I’m scared not to have them here with me but I know it’s for the best. I just want to make them proud of me.

Welcome. You are here with so many folks who were where you are today. You can stay sober today. Do you have a plan? Are you open to a recovery program like AA? So many resources are available online or in person.

I Have signed up for therapy I’m still a little nervous to go to AA. My plan is just to take it one day at a time.

I have been there many times too. Don’t panic, you know it will pass.

I hope that the last time was my last too.

I found listening in to the online 24 hour AA meeting really helpful in my first couple of days so as not to feel so alone
