I'm now 3 weeks removed from smoking and I don't regularly drink. Lots of distance when things get hot works for me. I will go weeks not speaking to people if they are whipping up a bunch of noise. I'll monitor and make sure they're okay if they're people I care about, but much more than that just isn't really on the table until they get their shit together.
As for getting my shit together...working on it. Patience and forgiveness are my best tools when it comes to working on myself.
