I'm convinced that sobriety requires a little shameless selfishness. Your need to get well - physically and emotionally - is way more important than a "friend" who enjoys drinking with you, or thinks you're not lively enough sober.
I put this a lot more assertively at first but edited it, lol. Be selfish. Take care of your needs.
Also, there's nothing wrong with being bored in circumstances where you used to drink. The upside of feeling spiritually and physically well easily compensates for an occasional outing with friends where you're thinking about how you'd rather be home watching the latest episode of "The Last of Us" or reading a book or whatever.
