So I had 2 AF days and on the 3rd, I went to an amusement park! What better way to release endorphins? :) I had a GREAT sober time and I didn't suffer when I saw others drinking and all the beer gardens. I didn't feel deprived because I had my Naltrexone with me and I knew that if I really wanted to, I could have a drink! But I didn't want to, because taking the nal would mean a diminished experience at the park. A few drinks isn't worth that!

It's funny because I didn't have those feelings the last time I visited an amusement park. I stayed in the damn bar while others around me were having the time of their lives. So I obviously felt like 'a few drinks' were worth that in the past. Naltrexone is changing my life already!

I had a great time yesterday and I faced up to my fears of the rides. I made sure to ride everything that scared me. I'm proud of myself. No hangover today! So happy in the ways this method is working for me so far!

So nice to hear that you were able to have a great time.

I know there are a lot of fun places that for me used to just be novel drinking settings. I look forward to actually taking advantage of all the opportunities to enjoy myself that I've been missing.

sober_girl, that's fantastic. I'm glad you had so much fun, and that you're noticing a positive difference already.
