I know how it feels to be around family and drinking. My family is pretty big at drinking and although they know I struggle I don't think they know to what extent and they don't really hold back if I am around. I've had to distance myself until I feel stronger. 5 weeks in and I still don't feel ready lol. I turned down a yearly family get away that is supposed to happen on Thursday. I was so worried I would disappoint them but we have to take care of ourselves first! My family is supportive but they don't know how to help. I feel guilty for not being able to be around them as much but it's to much of a trigger and maybe I still feel some shame. So anyways, I get about the family part. Everyone keep your head up!
