Sober for 3 days n counting
It's crazy when u r trying to quit n it seems like the more pressure there is suddenly around you to drink. I did not really tell a soul of my intentions to quit. Yet I was talked into hosting a dinner party. I had to fail one last time I think for me to appreciate my decision to quit drinking. I am more determined than ever. Wish me luck.

Welcome aboard firstbuckles 
I know my life was pretty much built around drinking, so it was really no surprise I had a few big tests straight up...
lots of support here tho - good to have you with us!

Why not start a new trend and don't serve alcohol at the dinner?
In my world....the host and hostess choose what food and beverages are offered..

Firstbuckles - It's great that you've decided to reach out for a new life. I failed a few times before finally getting it - sometimes that's necessary.
I think you'll find SR so valuable - it'll keep you busy during those first days when your nerves are on edge. I came here 4 yrs. ago out of curiosity and never left - it's meant everything to me to have people who truly understand. Not being alone takes the sting out of our troubles. Let us know how it's going.
