I wasnt a hermit - I went out - had picnics, coffee dates, movies...there's a lot to do for a sober guy...I just stayed away from situations where alcohol was the main feature.
I needed to separate my old life from my new one and put clear distance between who I had been and who I was becoming.
Use the time to work on your recovery and get a solid plan down. Build up your 'sober muscles'
