I've shared my experience so much I just quote the post now:

Then I'd wonder why I'd go out everytime and get 'real' beer.
I was still knee deep in old behaviours, and didn't even realise it.
As a former beer drinker I know it ticks all the boxes for me, and opens the door to old behaviour and old thought paterns.
I don't recommend it.
I don't need to know but maybe ask yourself why would you choose NA beer when there's so many other things to drink, though?
Is it really the taste of a beer you want, or are there other things happening here as well?

to me it's not about the alcohol content or lack thereof - it was all about the behaviours, and the intent - I didn't want to be seen as different, and I didn't want to change too much about my life.
When you add all that up it's no surprise to me now I went back to the hard stuff.
