You will..because you have you..Never forget that..You have your beautiful spirit growing like a plant...Never forget that...sometimes it might look like the plant is weak...but it's just regaining strength, to grow just a little more!

Early in sobriety, I came home early from occasions where I just didn't fit in - and some of those were sober dances! I just felt so awkward, so stupid, without being all juiced up on the booze. It's taken time, but I actually look forward to them now, and enjoy seeing friends and spending time catching up. Hang in there - I'm glad you left. At least you are sober and safe - that's the main thing.

Thanks everybody, was feeling sorry for myself again!!!
I seem to go through stages of being down, mostly when I want to drink - I could have stayed last night but like you all say, not a good idea...
I was spending so much time weighing up the pros and cons of having a drink that I wasn't really able to concentrate on much else, so it was best all round if I removed myself from the vicinity as I probably would have drank something and that would have been the undoing of everything...
Really appreciate all your comments, thank you all very much!!! :ghug2
Ruebena, nice to see you here again; how is your New Year going so far?
