Congratulations on your 19 months @Soberbilly and yeah you’re right I’m on vacation in FL Orlando area and I love it to be here. I’m struggling a bit with my traveling partner as he isn’t that excited as I am. The traffic around here was a nightmare the first few days too but even that calmed down a bit.
There’s only a few days left as we leave on Wednesday but I try to get the most out of it.
Meeting the manatees was by far the best experience I’ve ever had with wildlife. Love these creatures, simply lovely and nice , curious and kind … Beautiful meeting them.
And I’ve found people here also nice and caring and open minded.
So yeah Billy I really like your state
Yesterday I was on the bathroom floor crying, today I found myself in tears when I woke up but then was dancing around with joy for another day sober just a little bit later, and then i got outside in the fresh cold sunshine with the cows and birds and felt incredible. Recovery is funny ain’t it. Healing isn’t linear, and I’m grateful for the process. 🫶🏻
tomorrow marks one week alc and weed free!
When I quit everything at the same time like you it was the first time my partner had seen me cry in 20 years, I honestly thought I was having a stroke or heart attack.
3 years later I’m a right soft twat who will cry at anything sobriety gives us feelings
I remember googling “why can’t I cry” for my own feelings and it talked about melancholia depression, I was like oh wow so I’m DEPRESSED depressed😅 I was diagnosed with major depressive disorder a few years ago.
But it’s so true, when I get sober, I can finally cry. It is so HEALING and healthy
