I am an intellectual. I like Henry James novels and I read foreign affairs. It is difficult for me to find my people. It was all so boring and dull. But maybe that is burnout from finishing law school.
I guess I just feel like I have outgrown bars/drinking culture. But I have a lot to do and I am just going to focus on myself until I am 2 years sober. Sometimes I still feel vulnerable although alcohol does not frighten me the way it did at 9 months sober. Change is scary, but necessary. I'm being my true self for the first time in my life and bars do not align with my interests.
I can only be honest.
