Positive Words for a Sober Weekend

[Poodlefanforlife]

Hi all! Sometimes when I drink I drink too much and feel so awful about it the next couple days. This happened to me last weekend.

I am planning on going to a comedy show this weekend and being surrounded by my friends that will be drinking.

Please send me encouraging words and advice to not join the festivities!

Hello, Poodlefanforlife. I atleast wanted you to know that your post hasn’t gone unnoticed. Someone else may come along to help you. I can’t control my drinking once I start so I don’t drink at all. The only thing I can offer you in the way of advice is to not drink alcohol when you join your friends this weekend or don’t go at all. And if you do go and drink,please don’t drink and drive or be a passenger in a car with someone who’s been drinking. 🍀

Thank you!

If you feel able, it’s good to let your friends know that you are not drinking tonight. It stops your real friends from getting too pushy.

I will do that!

Hi what about low or non alcoholic beer

[Poodlefanforlife]

I don’t like beer or the taste of alcohol in general.. I only drink to let loose and be more social. I wish it was normal for places to have kombucha. It can look like a beer but isn’t. Hopefully I’ll just stick to an ice tea or pop.
