    Hey, Wayda go there, dillyp! I bet your family and friends are so proud of you. I'm a drunk who's been sober now for 15 years and I know it's not a 'cake walk' ! Just Try to keep busy on your days off. You mentioned that you went for a run. Perhaps you might join a running group. I did exactly that and the group kept me focused on running plus I made many new friends. Also take your little one out to the playground and meet other parents to share the joys of being a dad to this precious child. Don't beat yourself up too much thinking you're a 'horrible moody' person. Your girlfriend is probably thankful that your getting cleaned up. She won't mind you being a bit grumpy because she knows you're going to be completely involved in your relationship and totally enjoying a new life together !

    I wish you peace and joy! 🌹
