Feel it to heal it
Today's talk · preview
Day 16. Today is about feelings.
Here's something that surprises a lot of people in early sobriety. The feelings come back. Loud. Sadness you haven't cried. Anger you swallowed. Guilt. Loneliness. Grief. For a long time, a drink kept them quiet. Now there's nothing in the way.
That can feel scary. But here's the truth. Feelings don't last forever when you let yourself feel them. They rise, they peak, and they pass. It's the ones we keep numbing that stick around for years.
