Athough, I have been sober 26 years I still get uncomfortable when I am around alcohol. I limit myself who I am around. First my family, which I share all the holidays with. There are three drinkers in my family. They do not get drunk. That is what helps me. I always mark my cup I am drinking out of,so no accidents happen. I think I would smell it though. I am usually the first to leave by choice. Kathy

Hi, @klmz - with this now being a holiday weekend with Labor Day, wondering how you are feeling about the family gathering where there will be some drinking alcohol?

@klmz Hello Kathy:

You have made some good plans for dealing with alcohol during the holidays and family gatherings. I'm wondering who else in this group has a plan for dealing with the presence of alcohol this weekend?
