Been a little over a month and have been put on a set back for about a year from a fast tracking career. Felt like I was only going up. Drinking was something I did in free time and to have “fun” never depended on it. But definitely couldn’t just have one it was always multiple and chasing a buzz. Made the decision and got behind the wheel and kinda just realized I threw everything else away in that moment. Besides the career pause and bummed about that I’ve been in a rut of knowing what I need to do (fitness and other focuses) but find myself doom scrolling and counting down each second to each day. Haven’t craved alcohol but definitely miss the walking to the bar and walking back atmosphere. Guess just looking for some support or anyone have somewhat of a similar situation that can shed some light especially with the work aspect? My work was my identity and I’m lost here. Any recommendations for other work for the year I’m away from my career Driving is the only barrier.. thanks for reading.
