EVERYTHING i did involved alcohol.
when i got sober i had to learn how to have fun and enjoy those times. i did that by doing them. it was reaalllly weird feeling at first. quite a few of the "firsts" without alcohol really werent fun.
but i didnt give up. i kept doing them.
and eventually learned to change my perspective, have fun doing those things.
something wild:
i thought for sure EVERYONE that went to concerts drank, smoked pot, and/or did some formmof drugs.
then my first concert.
there were actually quite a lot of people there enjoying the concert without any mind or mood altering substances.
yeah, there were definatly ones that over indulged, but not everyone.
im certain there were some of them normal drinkers,too!
i dont get that still.
I'm still going thru that... everything seems awkward not drinking. I did go to a concert and didn't drink and enjoyed the concert, it was on my mind 100% of the time though and I was watching everyone else that was drinking.
