Here's a suggestion. Experiment with other milks. Oat milk, nut milk, rice milk. It's not the same, but it's an ok substitute if you find the right flavourings that you like, eg chai tea or some such.
You don't have to drink milk before bed, have a herbal tea or kombucha or

Being lactose intolerant and drinking milk doesn't just give you stomach pain and diarrhea, it can cause lasting damage to your intestinal linings and lead to chronic illness.

Do yourself a favour and stop giving yourself the shits just because you like the taste.

Resolving problems can be much easier than a lot of people think. That, and a lot of problems go unresolved because lots of folk prefer to have someone/something to transfer negative emotion onto.

Steps Towards Resolving Problems: Define succinctly what you want. Make sure it's reasonable, and that you function on your best behavior. Identify as many sources of possible assistance as you can. Rank-order them. Try the top one--give it a fair attempt within a reasonable period of time. Be clear, never raise your voice, and show respect to everyone you talk to. And show gratitude for every attempt to help. If one person reaches a dead end, ask to escalate. If that fails to produce the desired reasonable outcome, proceed down your list. If you've politely tried everything you can think of, without success, at least you can put the matter to rest, and figure that what you lost was tuition in the school of life.

If you guys hear it again, just yell out.....

"You shut your damn mouth Buzz Beaverton or I will put you out in the shed again!"

Your family should just die in laughter, and you wont have to be embarrased, I think.

Nah I’m sorry it sounds like she lost the plot. Her not being included in the wedding is not an excuse for any of that behaviour. Absolutely not okay.

If she was upset she should have shared her feelings with you in a sensible way or just got over it, moved on and had a good time!
