26 Being wary of drinking occasions We have worked out many ways of handling occasions when other people are drinking, so that we may enjoy these occasions without drinking. Back on page 21, we talked about whether to keep liquor or other alcoholic beverages in the house when we decide to stop drinking. In that discussion, we acknowledged that we live in a society where most people drink, and we cannot realistically expect that fact to change.

It seems especially important to stay away from such affairs if we feel nervous about them. But, sooner or later, there come…
