Being Truly UnHappy In Life

WhooHoo
WhooHoo
I remember a few times being so truly unhappy in life that I wanted to kill myself. I had no clue which way to do it. Just didn't want to face life, I guesss. Not life. Myself. And I didn't want other people to see me. I didn't see any reason for my existance in this world and what the hell did it really matter if I died anyways.
I had a boyfriend who adored me ( who didn't drink- except the sweat from my body) and couldn't bear to hear me discuss my truth at that time.
Truth be told:
I was drinking heavily at those times.
Never ever, ever, ever do I feel my life is absolutely worthless while sober.
Quite the opposite.
I got my giggle back being sober.
Try it out, Chris.

A lot of my depression and loneliness in early sobriety turned out to be nothing more than envy, and that was the result of my hard-earned and well-deserved inferiority complex. I had this chronic feeling that everybody else was better off than I was. What added insult to injury, of course, is that it was all true.

ENVY....that is IT!!!! Thanks so much Nemo! Shoot, I was having so much trouble w/the end of my 4th step this morning at Starbucks, damn, I couldn't find the right word for my part in some of the stuff/resentments, etc. That's it, I am envious b/c I think everyone else is better than me, crap, whoodathunkit? Thanks again.

hopenGod,

What REALLY depresses me is that by the time Mozart was my age, he'd been dead for 35 years.
