    Just starting the sober journey

    Hey everyone

    I just thought i would share my experience and see if can get any advice or support along the way. I?m from Canada and i have been off alcohol now for over 4 months i feel great and am very excited for the future. I stopped drinking because while drunk out of my mind a party i slept with one of my really good friends while she was still asleep... the next morning she told me that she knew about it and proceed to tell a couple of my friends what happened. I now can?t show my face to any of my friends and i have alienated myself to just staying home and not talking to anyone. This has never happened to me before, i don?t know what in my mind made me do such a horrible thing but i am 100% positive it was because of alcohol. I am starting a new college in September, which she also go's too but in a different program then i am taking, so that?s going to be a challenge in itself. I hope to make a clean break and start over at my new school. I guess the only advice i would want to ask is how to still be fun and outgoing at parties, so i can start the process of making some new friends.
    This is a very difficult time in my life so i would only ask for help or advice.
    Thank you so very much for this forum, i really hope i can get the answers i need to move on in my life
