You really aren't missing out on anything by not drinking. In your sober 90 days, have you been to a party or bar or out to dinner? My guess is that you didn't drink. I find that I enjoy myself at parties more now that I am sober. I am not the one doing stupid things, I can remember everything that I said or did. I wake up refreshed while others are miserable. I have heard so many times on this site that no one wishes they drank the night before or regrets not getting drunk. If the voice keeps up, think of starting over again. I'm only on day 26 and I sure as hell don't want to be a day one again. I had 30 days and drank with family on Thanksgiving and am pissed that I could of had 56 days. Deep down, your family will be admiring your courage to stay sober. Some members may want to do the same as you. It's only one day, one weekend, one week, whatever. Not drinking is not the end of the world. You will thank yourself in the morning, I can promise you that!
