In today’s Daily Trudge, we’re talking about one of the most common — but least admitted — challenges in recovery: loneliness.
Loneliness isn’t just being alone. It’s the feeling of being disconnected, unseen, or spiritually empty. And for many of us, loneliness was the engine that drove our drinking.
The Big Book tells us we were people who “didn’t belong,” who lived in separation, fear, and self-pity. When we put the bottle down, those feelings don’t magically disappear.
But the beautiful part?
Recovery gives us tools, community, and a Higher Power big enough to fill the emptiness we used to drink at.
Today, we’ll dig into:• Why loneliness hits so hard in early sobriety• The difference between being alone and feeling alone• How connection heals what isolation destroys• Why God, service, and fellowship are antidotes to loneliness
You don’t have to trudge alone — ever.
