  • Congrats on 90 days!! Huge fucking milestone, well done! When FOMO kicks in, force yourself to think about low points you’ve had with the fire water - it’s not worth it - plus there is a huge market opening up for non-alcoholic drinks, so when you feel a bit more resilient that’s an option to socialize, YMMV.

    In terms of getting out, I whole-hearterdly agree with the other commenter with volunteering. I would further suggest doing something physical, trash cleanups, running/biking club, etc. For me, getting my heart pounding and sweat pouring vanquishes any anxiety I might have had entering the situation or generally.

    Best of luck!


















  • I keep telling my s/o we need a sister wife and she keeps slapping me. That’s what dating is to me now.

    I’ve said this a bunch here and elsewhere but it bears repeating - get out there in spaces where you are forced to interact with others: rockclimbing gym, mma/martial arts gym, cooking classes (either free at the library or paid at Le’ Bon’ Too’ Expensive’), social spaces for vices like hookah bars or bar bars (come on green lounges already!!!).

    Forced interaction where hooking up is not expected is where the real hooking up takes place. Get out there and have fun and forget about (pussy/dick/w/e) for a few weeks and it will magically start coming into your life.
