I’m tired

Just hit 7 months no alcohol and a little over a year no weed. Also quit smoking and any other recreational drug use. I had many regrettable nights drinking but lucky to have stopped before it ever affected my life in any permanent way. This is really hard and I’ve felt so much lonelier since quitting. I feel like I’m punishing myself unnecessarily, but know that drinking/smoking isn’t the answer. Currently In therapy and taking depression medication but wish happiness came easier than it has in sobriety. This has been the hardest year of my life and I’m just trying to do all the right things.
