I know where you are coming from. I'm sitting in my nemesis right now. See, I took my alcoholism to a professional level. I own a wine bar/restaurant.
I spend 60+ hours a week sitting in a bar. Before I sobered up I'd take my first drink when I got to work at 10 AM and sip all day long. I'm surrounded by alcohol and distributors come every day with free samples that their bosses want to see tasted.
It is hard to learn how to avoid the temptation and I'm sure the stress of it has made it a little harder for me to be around any kind of drinking as my life is already surrounded by it.
I feel your pain but you can do it! It's just a matter of keeping your head down and suffering through those brief moments where the AV screams at you.
