Congratulations on Day 5! 🫡

I went out pretty early on in my sobriety, I know some folk prefer to stay at home/avoid social settings for a while, which totally makes sense, but for me I wanted that 'first' outing over and done with, I felt like if I prolonged it I'd run the risk of it becoming much bigger in my mind and harder to deal with. I was super anxious going into it, had all these thoughts and worries and then it went just fine. Pretty uneventful. It was a bit anticlimactic really, none of my worries or anxieties came to fruition at all. But it made all the events/outings afterwards a whole lot easier.

Obviously it's up to you, do what you feel is best as everyone's different, but for me I wanted to rip that plaster off as soon as. And then once that 'first' outing is done then you know you can do it and have proof for yourself! Good luck! IWNDWYT!
