I’m sorry that the group chat is so heavy with the drinking / partying. I know that I ran into my old neighbors the other day and it was great to catch up but the conversation did very quickly turn towards drinking. I had to just openly state that I don’t do that anymore and tried to move the conversation to something else. It didn’t so I went home. I know my old friends / acquaintances and routines will need to change if I want my sobriety to survive.
Are you able to join “meetup” groups or possibly do meetings where you would be around like minded people? It is possible to make new friends and hopefully you will not feel isolated for long. We are all here for you to reach out to and chat :slight_smile:

That’s super cool – i’m curious now too.
Glad you do have other non drinking friends and are getting in touch with your triggers.

Best of luck with this - we are here if you ever need to discuss or talk through… :wink:

Did some grocery shopping for Mom, stopped for a coffee and journaled for a few, came home and piddled around in the yard, getting it spruced up a bit. Going to start dinner in a bit. Been a busy day! :blush:

Hi ! I watered the plants, paid some bills, walked my dog, hugged my partner, apologized for drinking enough to kill a small army on Saturday, took her for dinner and was thankful for not drinking

From yesterday: I was at schooling party and there was alcohol (of course, because it’s party). I was a lot worried about it, but I found there coca cola! So I drank it and stayed sober. Now I’m really proud of it.

For today: Giving myself a peace and care. My body doesn’t need anything harmful.
