I'm struggling. I tend to go to a lot of social events that revolve around, or at least involve, alcohol.
Work events, friends birthdays, gallery shows, etc. I'm really trying but it's so hard to avoid the temptation.
I don't want to have to be a hermit and start avoiding these events altogether, especially as my depression kicks in hard when I spend too much time at home, but I can't always trust myself to behave. And I just don't have as much fun when i'm totally sober.
I also really really love the taste of a good beer and I can't find anything to replace it that satisfies.
Tried loads of different low/no alcohol beers and some tasted OK but with any non-alcoholic drink it feels weird to consume more than one or two of them, and I can't just sit in a pub with no drink at all.
