Thank you for sharing your story, I wanted to add a somewhat related perspective in the same train of thought.
My grandfather was a severe alcoholic, beat my father, the whole 9 yards. My father was obsessed with not becoming an alcoholic and his children from not drinking to the point of, I would say near insanity in the way he talked to us and ranted against alcohol continuously.
Anytime anyone would drink alcohol around him, he would spew the most horrible vitriolic language about them and make all kinds of personal judgements about them while not knowing them at all. He also physically abused us to without even the excuse of alcohol like his grandfather.
Today I never speak to him and happily drink in moderation sometimes. Maybe that’s not right for everybody but perhaps just a little reminder that everything can go too far including worry about drinking.
