On my fifth day not drinking and not confident I can stop for the whole summer or forever. In recovery currently and still debating what I'm going to do. I'm prescribed naltrexone but don't take it. Only took it for a couple days when orignally prescribed it a few months ago. So yeah not sure if this alcohol abstinence is going to last all summer or forever

If friends aren’t willing to avoid the bar for the time being, it may be best to take a break from them. Ask your friends if they can join you at a place that has less of a booze-focused vibe, like a restaurant or cafe.
