It was self regulating for me. When my behaviour got bad enough, I stopped being invited anywhere. Then I could sit at home bored and frightened and lonely and drink.

When I had been sober a while, I started to get invitations again. I followed the guidelines on page 101 of the big book, and never had any trouble.
