I got my first DUI in June of this year and I’m getting my license back in 3 weeks. I’m super nervous that having my license back will tempt be to go out and drink… but I also know that I could never drink and drive again. Interesting situation. I’m also flying to SC go see my ex on Friday, he wants to work things out and I know that I want to, I just have my reservations. I’m 21 and he’s 26, has a full time job and a house and I’m out of work bc of covid. I have nothing but time so I’m nervous about slipping up and having a drink. Ugh this is so hard but I’ve made it my first week! I’m proud of myself and hope to keep pushing through

Hmm, I might replay that night of your dui. Drinking will not do anything good to help you two get back on track either. Try not to glamorize drinking, watch some videos for sobriety. Also watch youtube videos of drunk people, that’s keeping it real!

I feel very fortunate that my situation was the way it was and not worse. My guardian angel was definitely looking out and I know next time (I have no intention of having a next time) I wouldn’t be as lucky. Thank you Donna! Reading these forums helps me realize that there is a lot more to life than alcohol

Change that thought to… “got my ONLY”. Be positive that you’ll never get another. Having your license back gives you the opportunity to go and do exciting things. Why waste time drinking. You have your whole life ahead of you to be free and find sober activities. Spread your wings!

Good luck with everything. When I was in my 20s I got 3 duii and believe me it’s not worth it! I’ve never drank and driven again. Expensive lesson🙂
