Another friend here!
Please make sobriety the most important thing in your life. Any "friend" who teases you or criticizes you for being sober or tries to encourage you to drink, is no friend! I had to let so-called "friends" fall by the wayside when I was in my early sobriety, but guess what? I inherited a huge loving family through my AA meetings. Please go to lots of meetings, you won't be sorry and you won't feel lonely again. And please keep coming back here. We all care and we're here for you. You'll come to love the people here because we understand what you say and feel. We've been there, done that.... and we'll share our experiences, strengths and hopes with you.
Good luck,
Luv2All
