Welcome alcoholly
Lots of support and understanding here.

It took me a little time to accept I could have fun staying sober. I had 20 years if telling myself that alcohol was fun and made things good - but it didn't.

You know that or you wouldn't have stopped.

You be bombarded with crazy notions about you being the only person in the world not drinking, everyone is out having fun and you're missing out, or that maybe a few won't hurt and you'll go back to being sober tomorrow....

don't fall for any of it. Play that mental tape right through to the end. Remind yourself exactly where drinking has taken you and will take you again.

you can do this - you'll be so happy with your self getting through this weekend sober
