Back to bbro's situation, some of us are not good at booze. 11 years ago I decided to take control of that aspect of my personality. We each have to find our own way but for me it was stopping, period.

One of my additional duties as a SF medical specialist in the military was Alcohol & Drug Abuse Program Coordinator for my unit. I assisted with enrollments, monitored progress, and made recommendations to the command on who should be retained in the military and who should be discharged based on their progress; or, lack thereof.

I've not found making light of; or, treating people in those situations humorously to be useful. When it happens, it seems to mostly come from those in a similar situation who resent the initiative and progress others are making. I won't hesitate to redirect it back to a serious note.

Bbro is showing some initiative. Try not to dilute that.
