I just wanted to share some hope for anyone who needs to hear it. One hard part of getting sober is being scared to lose friends and being lonely. When I got sober I didn’t tell some of my closest friends because they live in another state and I was scared they’d judge me. I had a woman in a meeting tell me “if the friendship if meant to be they’ll meet you on the other side” today one of my closest friends texted me to tell me he’s been sober since January. And it made me feel so hopeful that people really can meet me on the other side, and just because I’m sober doesn’t mean I have to lose friendships I love. And to anyone feeling doubtful it’ll all work out<3

WoW, did I need to read this!
I have managed to alienate myself from everyone near me and have many friends just shut the door on me. I don’t have a big circle at the best of times. My husband has stuck with me thankfully.
I sure hope as I get further into my sobriety some will come back to me.
There is hope 
Thank-you for this post!
