It isn't easy to have fun when you're miserable because you're not drinking. I remember it well...even though I had quit all I could think about was drinking.

Slowly though, things have turned for me. Alcohol is poison...literally...we wouldn't be miserable if we couldn't take strychnine - and so it makes no sense to want to drink alcohol. If you can get your head around this and really see alcohol for what it is...you will cease to envy the drinkers around you and begin to feel sorry for them. Your cravings will disappear and you will be able to go out and be the life of the party. I did it last night...it was amazing! I was funny, I was smart, I was drinking Perrier and I'm not sure if anyone even noticed!
