Teetotalism

^thanks erik and great post p helix. My bestfriend is actually having her bday celebration on saturday and i already told her that i wont be drinking. Ill do my best to fight the temptation. Wish me luck guys!
 
Maya, just wait when you see the improvements in your body. It makes it much easier. I gather from other threads that you are in good shape and I can tell you that I kind of stopped drinking about 6 years ago. I have tasted alcohol few times in these 6 years but I cant stand the taste any more and my tolerance is still the same. I wasn’t an alcoholic but I started drinking very young and always drank vodka and lots of it. Last time I drank once like two years ago when I took 0,7l of Russian Standardt (vodka) and was disappointed.

Main thing after abstaining from alcohol is my weight. I need to eat huge amounts just to keep my weight. I am now in great shape. First time in my life I can actually say that I am proud of my body.

I come from a country where its seen very abnormal if you are not drinking. Fortunately most of my friends smoke weed too and I like it. I have had zero problems visiting my friends who are drinking or even going to a bar and ill just take cola or coffee.

I am 32 years old male and these last few years people has started to ask my id when I buy alcohol or cigarettes. There has even been a situation where I was accused of using false id. Especially younger women cant believe my age.

I had some reasons which I think made it a lot easier for me to stop drinking. My sister and father are an alcoholics and I hate the taste of alcohol.
 
Be lucky Maya!

Just be yourself and hopefully you will remain sober on Saturday. If your mind and body are telling you to leave the ethanol alone then hopefully it should not be too difficult in spite of others' drinking. Think about how much better you will be feeling in the future.

Have a great time!
 
I did and im glad im sober lol my bestfriend though passed out in the cab. Now im the friend who takes care of everyone or maybe designated driver in the fture.
