5 day family vacation in Florida Beach House - everyone is drinking

Edit: Thank you all so much for the kind replies! This community is truly amazing.

Currently in a top notch beach house with my parents, siblings, and all of our kids. I’m the only adult not drinking. Last night it was really hard to accept that I can’t drink. I wanted to cave. But I imagined that one drink would lead to blackout. I would be a liability. Who knows what I would do or say. Maybe I’d go home after the trip and think it’d be ok to pick it back up.

I laid in bed sober and was grateful that the room wasn’t spinning.

Friday, the last day of the trip, will be my 500th day and I will achieve it. This isn’t always easy but IWNDWYT.
