Thanks Dee. I was worried about this too, but I've done a few activities so far and not felt jealous of other people drinking or the need to drink myself. My husband's Birthday cocktails in the city with a huge crowd plus the meal he organized with colleagues recently would have been the situations I'd most likely drink in (due to the huge anxiety I get before meeting up with people I don't know very well) but I was fine at both.
Basically if there's an event and I suddenly feel like I will drink if I attend it, I won't go. My best friends are flying over to see me at the end of this month and have all been advised that I absolutely do not drink any more.
