Do you feel that they help or hinder your sobriety?
I’m fond of seltzer and coffee. Water is pretty good. I leave non-alcoholic beers, wines and spirits for non-alcoholics.

If you need to say it’s a non alcoholic glass of milk you may want to change how you describe how you hydrate.

For me it's not a good idea. Leave the sleeping dog lay.

It works for some and not for others. Something you have to decide for yourself.

I personally think it would hinder me.
Thats just me personally though.. kind of like non chewing chewing gum or non bubble bubble gum..

Tried that once to help. Got some craft non-alcoholic beers….personally didn’t work for me.

Pretty sure pretending to drink wouldn’t work for me. I closed the door on every part of it.

A lot of mixed feelings on this topic. Um I have and still drink some NA drinks/mock tails. In the beginning of my sobriety it really felt like a substitute and a tool to help me fit in. After a while I realized I don’t need it. Now I’ll have one for the taste or to just drink something different than water or lemonade. It’s definitely not for everyone. Honestly the longer into sobriety the more I realize I do not need or want it.
