I think overcoming fears is hugely important. I have overcome many fears as a non-drinker. Doing things I never thought I could I do is so empowering and doing things without liquid or pill-form "courage" to boot...it just doesn't get any better than that! I find that the more I do this as a non-drinker....the stronger *I* become, and in turn the weaker *she* becomes. *She* is afraid of things...*I* am not.
