I’m a crybaby!!!

I took a lot of showers…crying in the shower is so much more soul cleansing than crying in bed or in the car.

I also did a lot that kept hands busy. Crafts, paint by number apps on my phone, eating. :rofl::joy::rofl::joy:, painting my nails.

I always had a water bottle near by to sip on.

Yes… the alcahol and powder were numbing your emotions. Which at first you probably thought was helping.

In reality the alcahol and powder were supressing your central nervous system and making your mind and body forget how to deal with emotions without alcahol.

It is going to take time for your mind and body to learn how to deal with emotions again.

Hi Tatti, I joined here 15 days ago, I’m 20 days sober, I check in every day to read, get advice & emotional support. I know I wouldn’t be this far along doing it by myself. Only my son, he’s 19 & 1 friend knows I’m trying to be sober. Happiness is a trigger for me, I always feel like I can handle some drink but I never do. I get depression from drinking, occasional a night will start out happy & I drank, then got emotional & cried lots. I’ve been feeling a lot less emotional the last 20 days, feeling stronger in my resolve to stay dry as the data clock up. I’m not saying it was easy. I’m happy to work lates & when it paases 10pm which means I can’t buy drink & it’s another day under my belt. I found the people on this forum very accepting, friend, supportive & good at giving advice. You can do it. Just take it one day at a time, I know that sounds like a cliche but it’s true. We can only do our best. Good luck :blush:
