Yeah, I don't like being around drunk people. I feel like a hypocrite as most of my life I was part of the club. I try not to judge or resent them but I just have this constant desire to inform them of the damage they causing themselves, but I refrain.
I was just at one of my children's wedding. This brought me considerable anxiety and discomfort as many of my former party clan were there. I felt embarrassed for them as they became touchy feely, babbling idiots as the night progressed. I don't know why I should be feeling this way when they seem perfectly content with their lifestyle. It's really not my problem and if they don't see it as one, it's not theirs either. I think it's just a painful reminder of my past that I would rather avoid.
I think we do have to be careful as we progress in this sober journey not to become overly self righteous. We may just become as offensive and annoying to others as when we were drinking.
