Went to my first work event where alcohol was involved, and I was able to stay on course. It was easier than I expected. I just said, no thanks and had iced tea instead. No one made a face, gave me a hard time or anything. I even had a good time.
I felt good after, being able to keep that old demon away.
Fantastic! If you don’t make it a big deal, no one else will.
I was at a gathering where there was alcohol and I was drinking sprite….someone actually said “you’re not drinking alcohol are you?” 
knowing my current situation. That hit me hard, meanwhile everyone just starred at me like I was from another planet. 
I know he meant well…..but wow that was hard.
Happy you had such a good experience!
Nice! Good work.
Man, that stinks. Hey, forget em’ you are doing right by you.
!
Good job!
That takes a lot of courage to face down the demon. Great work!!
