Teetotal and on Tinder- doable?

NC.

I'm in my mid-20s, rather lonely and thinking about trying out online dating.
I took a year out from uni (due to an illness) early this year. I'm making a good recovery and have learnt to drive.
BUT

I'm still on medication and will be for another 6 months at least. I was told that I should not be drinking by my doctor. Therefore I've been teetotal for the last year, and have gotten used to making my excuses, being the designated driver etc.

I fell out of touch with a lot of people after I moved home, don't like sitting at home with my parents, thought I might as well try something new!

Has anyone had a positive experience of dating without drinking??

Thanks Smile

I know I can be quite funny and so on but I come across a bit uptight at first. It's hard to let the fun side of me out, IYSWIM.
