Agree with everyone above. There is no need to shout it from the mountain top to everyone, that may even cause problems. My approach is to confide in a couple close friends and use them as a support group and be accountable to them for my commitment to not drink. I know I felt confused, ashamed and directionless when I became convinced that I am a person that should not drink at all ever. There is stigma out that and the uniformed/ignorant pass judgement, so just try to make good decisions that give you what you need to get what you want. IMHO
