For me this meant not only stop drinking but also going out until late at night (circadian rythms is a must, IMO) or basically wasting my time, fucking around doing nothing when I could be learning how to heal.

I remained friends with them, just that I met with them less often. My parents and brother know about it, yeah. Most of my friends donīt. I have just very recently told to a few of them, but not just to warn them not to do the stupidity of taking finas. When I was worse I didnīt tell them, I didnīt feel like it would help in any way, I donīt know... I just said: "I feel horrible when I drink, so I wonīt". And similar way with other things... It is just a bit hard to withstand the social pressure in the begining, after a while... you donīt give a fuck. Take care man, we got this
Maybe I should make new friends but dude I'm in Dublin Ireland Hahah. We all drink.
And I go to boxing and martial arts classes but still I have no idea where to make friends that don't drink.
Because there are some in our friend group that don't drink very much but they pretty much stay at home when they don't want to drink. So I guess that's my option too. Just stay home. It's fine for a week or two but I get lonely man haha
