I became a complete hermit when I first got sober. For the first 5 or 6 months. It's just what I had to do for myself. I went to work, meetings, IOP and home. I am now almost 9 months sober and have met new people and have reestablished old friendships, those I had before my crazy drinking days. It is hard to be in recovery and to be around those who are active in their addiction and especially hard to be around those who don't realize that they are an alcoholic. You just want to fix them... But you need to do what is best for yourself. You are not alone in this situation.
