Almost 60 days clean and sober and all of a sudden…BAM, I have become a mushy mess. I just told my brother how glad I am that he is my brother, sent an air hug to one of my friends that I have not seen in a while…keep telling people how proud I am of them. Someone just texted me and asked if I am alright because I have been overly lovey lately. I think it’s because my mind is more clear and I am realizing how important the people in my life are to me. They have seen me at my worst and I was not very kind to them in some situations. I had a Zoom meeting recently where one of the members expressed that she too went through this a year into her sobriety. Anyone else feeling this way?

Yesss! I swear mine was all years worth of bottles up emotions and numbing spewing out at once. I quickly realized I didn’t know how to process emotions without being fd up. So everything was super overwhelming.

Sorting thoughts and coping with feelings in a healthy way rather than self-medicating made me more mushy too

Yessss 100%
I acted very indifferent towards most of my friendships when I was using and now being sober I just can’t stop wanting to hype up my friends and tell them all how much I love them and how wonderful they are. My heart is full to bursting with emotions.
