Living the life of a drinker - while sober - can indeed be both boring and irritating. That's because most of the things we equate with "fun", really
aren't very fun...it's just the alcohol that makes them seem that way!
As a sober individual, I don't spend a lot of times at bars or parties anymore. When I first got sober, I was very frustrated because this lifestyle was all I knew. When got sober, and then sat down at a bar or went to a party and watched others drink and dance, it really was kind of boring. And really hard to deal with.
Take it slow, you won't feel enlightened right away. I think that maybe staying away from those kind of things for a while might be a good move, though.
