Need a lot more info: what kind of atomizer, what's your build, how are you wicking it, how are you dripping, how are you holding the mod (are you tilting, etc), when exactly is it leaking, etc... Pictures might help too.

Also, you mention the word 'tank'. Is it actually a tank or an RDA? If it is a tank, is it an RTA or a genni or a clearo, etc? This is an RDA sub-forum - if it's actually a tank you might get more/better help in a RTA or tank/clearo forum (if that's what it is).

It's an RDA, I drip it onto the cotton and always seem to have it leaking out my airholes and I get liquid everywhere, it's super annoying but I enjoy building and using RDA'S and don't want to switch to a tank, is this normal or can I do something about it?

Well it's tough to say for sure without knowing what kind of RDA, seeing your build/position of your coils, how they're wicked, etc. but *typically* if an RDA is leaking with just 'regular' use - it's a sign of over-dripping (e.g. Putting in too much liquid). Except in rare cases with certain drippers, if you have 'standing liquid' in your RDA, you've dripped too much. Typically you just want to saturate the wicks fully - and *maybe* have just a tiny amount of liquid at the very bottom around the tails of your wicks.
