Nah, when you are the heavy drinker in the family, those gifts are golden.

LOL! For me, it’s any Guinness-branded merch and bourbon glasses. I’m not single anymore, and we had to subtly suggest a gift card for fancy coffee beans. Still got a sweet Guinness hat, though.

Wow, by now you must have quite a large collection of Guiness stuff. I wonder if your collection is the biggest collection of Guiness stuff in the world.

In fact, I was always the biggest alcoholic in my family, addicted to Jägermeister but I had to choose between continuing to drink and dying or stopping. Well, I’m here now writing this post

Since the end of 2019, it was difficult in the beginning but now is everything fine

I can even attend parties without giving into temptation

You picked the hardest fucking year to quit.
2019 was when my consumption spiralled out of control (I’m sober for 3 months now).

Congrats, bro.

I had a severe alcohol problem but I hid it quite well, high functioning (most of the time, the other time I was hiding behind things like depression, anxiety, burnouts,…). So I got so much alcohol and alcohol related gifts as presents always. Then I finally started to cut down on drinking until I eventually stopped. But since no one really knew why I did that, they continued with the gifts. Even when I was pregnant and had a baby, I wasn’t invited to drink but it was assumed I would pick it up again soon, so… More alcohol.

I just moved and my new landlord gave me a bottle of champagne. Though he even knew I am still breastfeeding (a great excuse to not drink) but “well a glass can’t hurt on Christmas”.
