alcohol while in a bad relapse, opinions please

[OceanBlues]

I'm freaking out right now, tomorrow night I'm going for drinks with girls from my dbt group, they understand my situation and are lovely about it as i'm really struggling with restricting. Of course my initial thought is to avoid it like the plague but I can't let them down. I know for a fact I'll have the notion to fast to make up for tomorrow night and I know that it is wrong but the ed thoughts are so strong. blaaaaaaa sorry i'm rambling ... basically I just wanted advice on how to manage the night as best as I can or opinions on how you mange social situations with alcohol when you're struggling.

Han, have a safe meal so the drink doesn't make you Ill firstly. Then shoe out drink if you feel safe enough to, if not there's nothing wrong with alcohol free drinks ...you're still with you're friends.
