In many ways I relate sobriety to the living, knawing, pervading, ever present, unhapiness that is the reality of my existence. Alcohol, heroin give me temporary release from this exhausting life.
This is why I think so many of us are reluctant to give up our vices/drug of choice. They give us needed relief.
I need to do 2 things
1) Fully understand that Sobriety doesn't = anguish/pain/unhappiness
2) Address the problems that do = my anguish/pain/unhapinaess
Then I will finally be ready for sobriety and reality
