I agree with Ken. Nothing to be gained from discussing my recovry with people who are work colleagues, choir members, in the same band as me, long-time friends, or even relatives to be honest. Sometimes I'll have a brief conversation about ut with my partner, which invariably ends abruptly in an effort to not strangle him. I talk about alcoholism and recovery with other alcoholics in recovery. At a push I might discuss it with my doctor, although that wasn't very helpful either last time. That doesn't mean I have to avoid them or cut myself off though. I just don't talk about THAT to them. Theres plenty of other stuff in the world to talk to the normies about eh!
