Question by Michael L: how did you feel when you first got sober? a question for recovering addicts?
ive been in recovery for a while but relapsed a lot and now im dead serious about staying sober but i feel so hopeless and scared… like its over for me. im 26 and ive done it all from acid to E to just plain binge drinking. i just want to hear about how people have felt physically and mentally so i dont have to feel so ALONE in this myself. so what was it like for you?
