Hi BrittneyNicole the one thing I find that get's me thru my days is when I can't associate with people who drink....for now. I have had to give up friends who like to drink as entertainment..it's not easy but for now i try to find other things to do like exercising....I have signed up for a oil painting course....which I used to love to draw...and here I think I will meet new peeps with different interests.
