I really love this and you kind of read my mind today. This is something I'm certainly struggling with. A few things though - what if your husband, your best friends, your parents, etc...drink. They're all amazing people and I love spending time with them, and it would be merely impossible for someone not to be drinking at any one event /party. My husband is a daily drinker. I don't expect him to change, but I also can't avoid it. i guess what I'm saying is it's hard to find that balance between avoiding people/situations who drink when you're surrounded by it. Suggestions welcome
Thanks for taking the time to write this though. I've really spent so much time being grateful for 2 weeks sober, while bitter and anxious at the same time. Please tell me this too shall pass!
