summer triggers

I was just wondering how many of us have a much harder time avoiding the "party" pit falls of summer fun..The BBQ, beach, some good rock n roll..I am finding that summer is a huge trigger for me..and I have been avoiding the BBq's etc..This will be my first summer off drugs in a long time..6 yrs..I have had the urge to use my doc..but even more to get a 6 pk or whatever..This is going to be a long trigger...

I dont want to rain on anyones parade here but just be careful.  The alcohol can take you places you dont want to venture.  I do know what you are saying tho. My cravings for drinking are few and far between anymore but summer was always full of pills but then so was spring,fall and winter!!!!  Just be careful my friend.

Don't do it, Lisa. Other people have good times without alcohol, or drugs. We can too.
