I put off getting sober for years because I was convinced the outside influences in my life wouldn't allow me to, I was always complaining to myself that if only there was less of this and more of that then I would be able to get and stay sober. However, unless someone is holding you down and pouring alcohol into your mouth you can get sober anywhere, the only thing that matters is you and what you want. If you (like I was) are waiting for the perfect situation in which you think you will be able to maintain long term sobriety to magically happen, you will be waiting for a very long time. Once I realised this and put my sobriety first I was able to get sober and stay that way.
Good luck
