If I didn't force myself to take the language course that I'm taking right now, I wouldn't leave my house. The only thing that used to get me out of the house before was when I got so drunk that the anxiety didn't stop me. Now being 5 months sober, I kind of don't know how to make it happen. Admitting this makes me feel incredibly weak.
Lately I feel like I care less and less about people. Maybe that's why I'm not willing to go the length to help my father. I just don't know if I care enough. It's odd, I used to be such a caring person, at least I think I used to be.
Five months! That is great to read Natious. I can totally relate to the block in social interactions that come with staying clear from alcohol. I remember when I decided to get away from drinking it was the same for me. But it will get gradually easier to get out for any- and everything over time. Right now is still recalibration. When I was about a year in sober reality it really started to be easy and fun to go out and do stuff. You know, this is nothing to feel weak about. On the contrary.
Wish you all the best!
