Most of us are super scared of our feelings by the time we get sober. And then we are faced in sobriety with what can feel like an emotional rollercoaster.

A couple years into my sobriety, when I was "thawing out" emotionally, I realized that I was legit almost phobic of some of my feelings. A lot of my students have felt the same way.

We've been afraid of our guilt, shame, anger, boredom and even feared fear itself!

And so, getting sober can feel like, welcome to your f*cking feelings. No booze to numb them, no where to hide, just feels (even the scary ones) popping up left and right.

And so let's dive in to a little emotional sobriety and what it can be like if we find that we're afraid of our feels.
