r/stopdrinking helped me quit. Every time I had the urge to drink, I'd read through posts or write my own. I still hung out with my friends who drank, but I would always order/make coffee and they all respected that and never gave me any flak. Generally, it's suggested that you find a new group of friends. If your friends can't deal with you drinking non-alcohol, then find a new group. Four years later, I'm still dry and still want to drink every day. It's easier, but the temptation is ever-present. Best of luck
