Yeah the emotional stuff is a bit of a challenge for me too, but I finally realise that once ya deal with issues it gets easier and the joy is able to shine thru. I have spent time crying (& i usually do not cry easily) and onne I a done with the tears, I find myself laughing more than usual. I believe most of us addicts start using to avoid emotional pain. I am covered in tattoos and usually when I have an upsetting event, I go get more tattoos. I would much rather get tattood than get drugs. They cost about the same coincidentally. I often tell people, for every broken heart, i have a tattoo. Thats a LOT of broken hearts.
You are really doing great. Get emotional and let it out.. It will help more than you can imagine…Promise.
