Pink Cloud is bursting a bit
I've been on such a spiritual and emotional high that's just been building since I got into AA. I feel myself slipping off of it a bit and it's scary. Doubts are creeping into my mind and thinking about the relationship of mine that just ended. Missing having him in my life...sexually and otherwise. Feelings of insecurity, uselessness, hopelessness, and worry are setting in and my anxiety attacks are back. I'm so lonely but at least I got my meetings. I just wish I was where I want to be in life and wish I could accomplish more things in a day than I'm able to right now. It's overwhelming and I'm depressed. I didn't think the first stages of sobriety would feel more like manic depression! Feels like I'm losing my mind. But maybe I need to lose it in order to find it, eh?

You will be ok. Just do the next right thing is what they always told me, and that\'s what I\'m doing. Keep it simple hun, or you will start feeling these feelings even worse. Get back into the moment of the day. Those feelings are just feelings. They aren\'t real! The disease is though, and it will try to lie to you like this!
Have you a good sponsor? Are you working the steps? Are you going to enough meetings?
