I don't worry about what everyone else is doing. I don't like drinking so I am not going to do it. Other people can do whatever they want but that does not mean I have to.
To me the holidays are the best time not to drink. I don't enjoy it anymore so why would I ruin a holiday by drinking? That's how I see it anyway..
If I am sober I know I'll have a good time if I'm out with friends. If I am drinking it is a hit or a miss. About 90%of the time it'll lead to me binge drinking, getting in a fight, drunk texting, using drugs etc. No thanks. I am done with alcohol.
Don't let society make you feel like because it is a holiday you should drink. Do what YOU want to do.
