(I have found it necessary for me not to be around anyone that is drinking no matter how much they are drinking. Staying sober is my number one priority and I have not reached the point where I feel like I can safely be around it at all. I guess I have become a "sober snob". It is not that I think I am above anyone anyone else now. I just don't want to weaken and drink again and become who I was when my alcoholic thinking and behavior caused me to do some very low class things.)
As long as you stick with the program, in time, you'll find yourself able to be around active drinkers with impunity ... it won't bother you anymore like it does now ...
