For me, I try and keep myself busy with making artwork and music...but it's still really hard. Also, a lot of my friends drink, and our social activities involve a lot of alcohol, so...it makes it a challenge.
I drink when I'm depressed too. Or bored. Or anxious...Which is dumb, because if I am drinking while in a bad mindset, it makes it worse. I wish it wasn't such a crutch, and I think it's great you've gone for so long without a drink.
