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

I hope you have found peace in your sobriety, it’s not an easy road.

In fact, there comes a time in your life where choices must be made

Congratulations! How long have you been sober? I'll be up to six years in a few months. Wewt! Keep it up!

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

Jager bombs.

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".

Well fuck me. Ghosts are real.
