Just shy of 7 months completely sober off of ALL substances.

I am struggling to find any motivation to go to social outings.

I push myself to volunteer weekly and attend a small group. But, I often leave each social engagement feeling completely exhausted and defeated, afterward. The only reason I go (in the first place) is because I feel like I should and I feel guilty for being so reclusive.

My family and friends are worried because I decline invitation after invitation.

When did you start to feel social again in your journey? Would love to hear other people’s perspectives on this. Tips/advice always welcome.

Thank you.
