Being around people who drink and smoke can be hard

posted 1 year ago

Recovering from addiction to cigarettes and alcohol is no problem 85% of the time but being around people that don’t seem to be able to socialize without these things always rekindle the desire in me. Don’t want to become a hermit as I love socializing but do people really need these things to relate to others?!?!

It’s easier said than done, but you have to change your crowd. At least for a while; long enough to reinforce your commitment to yourself.

RULES:

I am looking for mods!

1. The “good” part of our community means we are pro-empathy and anti-harassment. However, we don’t intend to make this a “safe space” where everyone has to be a saint. Sh*t happens, and life is messy. That’s why we get things off our chests.

2. Bigotry is not allowed. That includes racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, and religiophobia. (If you want to vent about religion, that’s fine; but religion is not inherently evil.)

3. Frustrated, venting, or angry posts are still welcome.

4. Posts and comments that bait, threaten, or incite harassment are not allowed.

5. If anyone offers mental, medical, or professional advice here, please remember to take it with a grain of salt. Seek out real professionals if needed.

6. Please put NSFW behind NSFW tags.
