Does "going out for a drink with friends/meeting new people at the bar" require consuming alcohol?
Plenty of bars have non-alcoholic beer and mocktails. I've always switched to them after 1-2 drinks.

The reality is though, alcohol lowers your inhibitions, and sometimes it's a good thing. Again, I have to emphasize the whole moderation part, and how alcohol might be awful for some people, so obviously refrain from it. But actively discouraging any sort of drinking...
