Summer is here. Wedding, graduation, and holidays season is here. Share your tips on how you manage events where alcohol is served. Do you avoid the event all together? Do you drink a mocktail?
Drop your tips below.
It depends. Don’t avoid functions but always have an escape. Have a sponsor or support person on standby to call if you need to talk out a craving. If you really are struggling… walk away. Nothing is more important than your sobriety. Those that understand that won’t mind, those that don’t understand it don’t matter.

Escapes are imperative. I, too, create reasons to leave parties early if alcohol is present.
In my first few years.i went to meetings before the event.ounce you go to some you realize .it’s just a thing.
So for me I have learned that I can travel and be fine to go by bars and stuff but cruises I cannot do
I have a concert to go to in a few months and I know it's a risky event so I'm not sure if I want to sell the tickets
