It's hard to not feel overwhelmed and sad in this world but I am getting by and I think I'm doing better."

The person is finally getting over a past partner and the intrusive, confusing thoughts that previously dominated their mind and created the painful situation. They continue to struggle with attempts to stop drinking but manage to balance responsibilities and resist allowing alcohol to take control. They are actively identifying what is important to them and intentionally gravitating toward those priorities. Frequent feelings of overwhelm and sadness persist in response to the world, yet they are getting by, maintaining daily functioning, and recognizing personal improvement. Self-awareness, resilience, and gradual change underpin steady progress despite ongoing challenges.
