So, I decided to come out of my sober reclusive bubble. I am currently at my friends show.being in the music scene sober is definitely becoming trying. I’m doing my best to not focus on people drinking and pay attention to the show. I feel like I am actually enjoying the night. A part of me wants to drink and throw my inhibitions to the side but I feel like I can do that sober with some positive self talk.
Idk
You won’t b hungover tomorrow! Enjoy the show!
Well You’re more confident than I am aboit that kind of thing, but like Sweet Tea said enjoy the show!
So I been here all of a half an hour and someone wants to battle me. I can’t go anywhere lmao. Looks like things are about to get exciting
Keep a soda in hand and enjoy the evening. It’s a different vibe being sober.; an improvement not being dulled out an inebriated. Rather, stay clear minded and have your wits about you.
I’m drinking red bull I am using the excuse of being the designated driver
I actually practiced going to the bar. First I would just go to pick up food (they have really good burgers). Then I would go there and order the food and wait and drink pop (soda). Last time I was there I even ate my food there lol. By then the drunk people were getting on my nerves so I left. Haven’t been back since.
Mmmm burgers. Yeah one of my favorite places has great burgers. I miss those burgers. Turns out my old bartender there is in the rooms.
Remember in those circumstances, you can leave when you need to. Hope the night ended well for you.
In early sobriety I used the excuse that I was the d.d, had an alergy to alcohol (like A.A states) and even that I was on probation. Somehow these ideas sounded better to me than simply stating I don’t drink? Now, I realize no one cares if you drink or not. Some only care if they can drink. Which was my mindset before being sober.
