If I had any advice for those new in recovery, it would be to stay single if you are, and focus on yourself.

I am worried I might come off as judgmental, but none the less it's my first word of advice.

My main triggers in sobriety come from relationships with others and until I get through the current level of uncomfortableness, I feel with others I hesitate to make new friends.

This comes from being isolated to myself the last few years, I have had to take a step back in life and become someone I can truly trust again.
