Description
Jenna and Daniel discuss agitation, irritability and rage specifically as it applies to early sobriety, and how alcohol muted those feelings, in addition to feelings of happiness and joy, in active addiction. They address the expectation for everything to feel better immediately after getting sober when in reality it takes time to adjust to the influx of genuine and authentic feelings and emotions. They talk about strategies to combat newly sober irritability, and how in their active addiction they thought those strategies sounded ridiculous until they started to put them into practice.
