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
Not now, bro. I'm in the zone!
Jager bombs.
Well fuck me. Ghosts are real.
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".

Everyone thinks I'm an alcoholic? I'll show them!
Nothing wrong with secretly regifting some of those to friends
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.
Now just imagine I spelled it right.

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