Yeah, actually I was starting to feel like kind of a freak in that department. I'm trying to get used to drinking juices and stuff. That way you're not just sipping on water or Sprite. (My g/f came up with a really nice NA cocktail involving cranberry juice, orange juice, and a twist of lime.)

But it is kind of hard to not be able to just let back and get a little silly like everyone else seems to get to do. I'm finding myself avoiding the bar and cocktail party scene and trying to do more small-scale dinner parties. Part of me still resents it and wants my old life back, but well, I guess the other part of me has to believe that this is mentally healthier over the long run.

> It's nice to know that I'm not alone out there with that problem. It's been weighing on my mind alot because its really put a damper on my adult time with my husband. I used to enjoy drinking and having fun(never a heavy drinker, I don't have an addictive personality at all) but now it almost seems like a chore and it freaks me out! Thanks for the input
