Today is my first sober new year and I’m feeling a bit sad. So many of my friends are going out drinking and I’m going to be at home with my immediate family having tonic water. Depression and anxiety sucks 
I used to drink when I felt this way, but I can’t now. I’m 48 days sober and plan to stay this way. I think I need a hobby or I should become one of those annoying people that eat, sleep and breathe a gym.
Happy New Year ariana2607, sorry to hear your New Year’s Eve hasn’t been quite how you might have wished it to be however 48 days sober is absolutely fantastic and what a good start to go into the new year with! You might be jealous a wee bit of your friends going out drinking but spending time with your loved ones whilst changing your life for the better is priceless. Sending lots of hugs your way

Congrats…as far as depressed because you aren’t drinking…hmmmm…I suggest hanging out with others who are sober. AA is a great place to start.

Happy New Year @ariana2607! Think of every single benefit you feel from being sober ️ But, hey, if it helps, I was a grumpy cow on NYE - so I put myself to bed 
don’t regret that decision today.
