You can have reasons, or you can have results, but you can't have both.

Hi, NJ. Don't give up. Cancel your drinking plans at once.

It's very common to miss your old "frenemy," alcohol. I liken booze to a bad boyfriend/girlfriend. Way more trouble than it's worth, but you miss it when it's gone, and you're hoping to find a better replacement but you're kind of faced with a void in the meantime.

Just like with the loser boyfriend/girlfriend, don't go back. Think hard about something you can do in the near future that will be seriously fun and distracting. You sound like you need to smile, need to have a little fun. Is there anything you like to do? Food? Road trip? Music? Dirt bikes?

Just brainstorming. Find something, even if it's just short-term to get you through the week. Don't go drinking.
