10 Days and Tonight a Dinner Party

This is the end of summer and I live in a resort town. People here really whoop it up this time of year. Had to go to a very close friend’s birthday party - everyone drank really good wine. This was the only real difficult time I’ve had so far. I took a gummy and had an enjoyable evening. I know that this isn’t the answer.

This is amazing! One day at a time.

Was o ln a bachelor party trip day 11-14 this week. Made it through. Good job! One day at a time, it wants to pull us back, but be strong.

I avoided all events during my first few months. It was during the holiday season and I didn’t see family or friends. I knew I had to put my sobriety first and I didn’t feel safe enough to put myself in any situation involving drinking. The following year, no one remembered I wasn’t there, probably because of their drinking. I’ve enjoyed plenty of events sober since then and I don’t feel like I’ve missed out on anything.
