Attended my first event...

I attended my first big event where alcohol was present. A bit risky this early, 24 days, but it was a huge fundraiser for special needs individuals and I was determined to attend, sober.

Almost everyone was drinking, there was so much booze flying out of the bar. I was pretty tempted. It was loud, very crowded, awkward and uncomfortable for me. I have social anxiety that I used to self medicate.

Anyways sorry for the ramble but I worked through it and stayed sober, only water.

No one cared what was in my glass. The only person fixated on it was me.

I think I need more sober time under my belt before I am in a situation like that again. It was pretty hard. Proud of myself though. Just kept telling myself common you want to see 30 days! You drink now and that goal is gone.

I hope everyone is hanging tough with me this Friday night!
