I’ve been sober for 43 days now and I feel good, better than I felt getting drunk. The only thing is meeting people who are sober, not that easy. My bros don’t want to hang cause I don’t drink. It’s just still strange.
Wow I feel like I posted this. 43 days here too and meeting sober genuine people is so tough.
Hey congrats on your 43 days
Funny thing is I can’t meet anyone sober much less genuine haha
I am genuine and sober. lol TY
For the most part I’m not people person, but it would be nice to have a few friends that I could hang with and chill without the pressure of drinking.
Sure is, I have hope there are still good people out there.
43 days congrats! I cant wait to be that far I bet it does feel good! Not drinking seems so boring sometimes but I guess eventually we will find other activities and things and different friends with them. I’m enjoying staying away.from the rest of the.world for now. Eventually I need to get out of my hole though. Congrats again on 43 days!
It takes time to get back out into the world. I have rushed it in the past and always end up relapsing around day 13. Ive been sober and laying low for 17 days. The begining was real hard for me because i needed to find new things to occupy my time, since all of my time prior was dedicated to drinking and everything i did involved drinking. Try and find things you enjoyed before you started using. It takes sonetime to figure that out so dont get frusterated, the patience is worth. Boardom is real trouble with addicts, stay busy and you will find new fun without substances.
I appreciate the advice and encouragement. Right now I’m just remodeling my house and building stuff.
