@lorenamichelle.la: No one told me that depression could play a huge role in the first stages of sobriety. I didn’t think about any of this when I first made the decision. What I didn’t expect was to feel everything at once and sit in my emotional turmoil to the point of it affecting my health. I almost broke so many times in the first 6 months of sobriety and to be honest, that time is such a blur. I had to go through that hell to understand and find what works and all that listed did it for me. Getting even closer to God was top notch. I run to my Bible and/or prayer in times of stress or temptation. I anoint my home and my space in times of tension. I talk to God all day everyday. & it works for me, every single time. Let me add to the list: Get some MORNING sun. (Ladies it’s gold for our hormones) I’m grateful I went through the motions because now I know what works.
