If you're at a bar, get sodas or seltzers and don't tell anybody they're dry. nobody can tell and nobody asks. if they do, say they're boring drinks like well rum and coke or well vodka tonics. Tip the bartender. If you're at a BYO party, bring some silly drink you never had before. Never had orangina? bring some to the party. try that CBD seltzer, etc. there's dozens of kitch drinks in every corner store. At home, stop restocking. work thru your liquor cabinet, even the stuff you don't normally drink. lastly, find other substitutes. night on the couch, you want a beer? get into herbal teas. make a bag of popcorn. there's so many fun treats out there. If you are offered a shot or other social situation, don't beat yourself up for saying yes. the goal isn't to be perfect it's to replace most situations with an alternative.
