I don’t care what anyone says- it’s a tough city to be sober in.

My sponsor always tells me just don’t pick up for the moment you’re in. Don’t plan for anything except the present situation. My friends and family are drinkers, but there’s a few that rarely drink anymore. Most of the time I spend with people that don’t drink. I’ve put a lot of effort into bettering myself and staying sober. I lean on my sponsor and all the men and women in the rooms. I get numbers and talk to people that understand how I think.

Something I was told while I was in rehab that as stuck with me, 1: never do anything that will f*** with my sobriety; 2: always have a way out

To this day, those two statements have helped me more than I can count.

I hope you’re doing well and staying strong! We all have your back!

We are sober friends and happy to be your friend.

You can't be around people who drink because for us is very difficult. We are sick and alcoholic people don't have cure. We will die alcoholic. But we can control it if we look for help.

I feel the same. I never really had alot of friends growing up and it wasn't till I started hanging out and going to bars with coworkers that I really felt that connection. Loneliness is what leads to my drinking mostly

I think that’s true for many of us. Hang in there, it’s hard but worth it

I’m there with you. All my friends and family drink. A lot. I’d love to have sober friends to do things with

Be sober and as time passes you will have many sober friends.

As you become sober you will have more time. Fill that time with creative activities and communicating with sober people.

I agree with everyone else.. alone you aren’t.. I also had to change everything and everyone I associated with. It’s hard but now I have almost 6 months clean and I never thought I’d see the day!

I have to admit its a challenge but not impossible. Sometimes you have to let go.. This about you. You're not Alone you got us.

That's the same boat I am in

I am in this position, everyone around me drinks regularly, I'm the only one sober in my life. It's hard, but worth it
