Hi everyone! I’m Stacia!
Looking forward to your insight on making sober friends after getting sober. As a single mom, nights without my child are infrequent. BUT, tonight, for example I have a night off, but have been fearful to go out to have some fun.
Would love to hear about YOUR Friday nights now, how you met local sober friends and how you’re overcoming that “fear of missing out”.
Hey Stacia! I haven’t made too many new sober friends lately. Honestly, I usually stay home and just keep to myself. The sober friends I do have all have families and are usually with them at nights. And I’m a single dad myself, but I have 3-4 nights a week when my daughter isn’t with me. I just watch sone shows on Hulu and sometimes I study a little. I used to feel I missed out, but as time has gone on, that’s kinda naturally gone away.
I have only made one sober friend so far. I go to NA on Friday nights. I’m hoping to connect with sober women there and make good friends.
I LOVE that. I am a “zoom baby” and attend online AA meetings, but the girls are all located out of NJ. (I’m up in NH). I don’t know why it didn’t occur to me to connect with the local AA group. 
Stay sober, sister! And thank you for your suggestion!
Hey Stacey how are you
