17 days after years of drinking and drugging is like taking a vacation. Your life hasn't changed yet, you're just starting to see and understand.
You've not mentioned how you are staying sober, but maybe you've got the same friends as Bill W. If you do, I don't doubt at all that you'll succeed in getting the things that you deserve.
Take care of yourself first, and the rest will follow.
