So this is probably going to sound like a very silly question in the perspective of things...
I used to be a heavy drinker, smoker and pot user (at one point my doctor told me I was heading the way of an alcoholic and my Mum said she'd disown me if I ended up like me Dad) and so far have managed to boot the cannabis outta my life. I quit smoking too, I have stopped using other drugs and not had a drink in over a month.
I wanted to go sober because I got tired of being drunk and also realised it had caused me a lot of problems in the past. I don't know how good I feel about giving money to industries which have caused my family a lot of harm (and may kill some people). I actually feel amazing without drinking, but my social life is suffering and I'm just asking for advice...
I wanna be straight edge, generate my own energy, be in control...
However, the social side of things have gone, in that I hardly see people now because a lot of my mates like to be drunk or go to pubs. I don't really feel as comfy in pubs now I am sober and find drunk people can annoy me.
Any idea on how I can get my social life back on track? or good groups to meet other tee-teetotallers?
Caffeine is another thing... I normally only use it now, if I am feeling tired and need a buzz for a work out, but sometimes in work, I don't get breaks or don't get time to eat all my dinner and so drink a fizzy drink or sugary coffee to last me the afternoon...
In fact, I think I may have an addiction to it in a weird way...
So yeah... Caffeine is really more of a vice for me, as I'm clean off everything... I was wondering if anyone here is now straight edge/clean of drugs and can offer some advice?
Thanks
