My concern is that I won't know how to communicate with the people in my life, the ones I used to drink with. I don't know how to find the balance of being able to not go back to drinking while in their company, but still having a relationship with them. Do I just cut them off and hope they realise i'm trying to better myself so I cant associate with them anymore? I guess if they are real friends they will understand. I just wish I could stand by my decisions without feeling like I have to be a certain way to have friends. Reply to this Question Share |

You may need to find other friends, or spend more time with others. No one is saying these are bad people but you need to do what is best for you.
