I want to stop drinking, but I don't see the problem with hanging out with people who are drinking. It doesn't trigger me. I actually don't get any physical cravings for alcohol because of my traumatic brain injury
You stopped drinking three years ago but you want to stop drinking? Which is it?
I personally wouldn't hang out with people who were drinking, because I find navigating drunk conversation gets kind of boring after a while, I would hang out with people who model the behaviour I want to display. This means I tend to hang out in spaces that talk about reading, sewing, crochet, or long-distance walking, spaces where neither alcohol or not drinking are the subject. if people do start talking about sewing and drinking, I drop out of that part of the conversation.
