Thanks so much everyone!

To the people who asked for advice: it may sound a bit reclusive, but I think the main thing that helped me was getting myself physically away from alcohol. I don't generally go to bars, happy hour or other events where I know drinking will be the main activity, and I try to really just limit my time around people drinking. My husband doesn't drink around me when it's just the two of us, either (though he sometimes does when we go out with friends to dinner or something.) I do think it's necessary to cope with a certain amount of it to live in society, but limiting my exposure has really helped me a lot.
