I’m not doing good tonight emotionally at all and would just like someone to talk to who’s going through sobriety also. But don’t want to put it all out here publicly. Tonight I’m just broken

Picking up the pieces is hard and definitely not always the way it is preferred but, truly authentic, gratitude, family, and self care start the rewiring of our story
I’m not sure if this will help, but aahomegroup.org has an AA meeting 24/7. That might make you feel less lonely in going through sobriety, hearing people share. Over time if you’re into it, ask for a sponsor.
Short term I’m sure plenty of folks can help out

Thank you all who reached out, to the ones who talked to me last night and encouraged me privately, I appreciate you greatly. I was given some info regarding my husband’s passing (ironically from an extremely kind gentleman who found me through my writings on here, he was the person who helped pull my husband out of the Porta potty and perform CPR) that I thought I was ready to handle however, it hit me like a ton of bricks and I got the first real craving where I was honestly scared for the first time in 16 months of relapse. However, I laid out my intentions 16 months ago and come what may, I intend to follow it all the way through. Today I am still 16 months sober.

So glad for you Sarahya.
Though my experience differs it is somewhat similar… In the sense that my addictions greatest need to numb came at me like a tonne of bricks, and though I buckled, I never crumbled and fell.
It taught me that even in the darkest of times, I can push through. My emotions and feelings combined with fear do not need to dictate a poor unhealthy future for myself.
Just like the seasons, these too shall pass, and brighter warmer things will appear with patience, persistence and determination.
