First...you know it won't be one drink. That's really not the point, even for the "normal" drinkers attending. The objective is to get drunk, yes?

Second...your tolerance is gone. You're going to be insanely hungover (after being really really drunk) even if you somehow magically manage to limit your intake.

Third...all those little addicted neurons are going to wake up and start SCREAMING again. The door will be open and the endless debate will be back nonstop (Just one! Hard day! Everybody drinks! You can handle it now! Yammer yammer yammer.)

Do you really have to go?

Do you really want to spend an evening babysitting drunk people?

For me, it comes down to this: I wish things were different but they aren't. So given the fact that I can't drink, how do I conduct my life?

You won't be sorry if you don't drink. You are extremely likely to be sorry if you do.

Sending you a hug.
