Great to hear this success story. It's really, really annoying to me that the world is covered in this drinking culture, and it couldn't have made your life any easier.

I remember growing up being constantly pressured to go out and drink because nobody had anything else to do with their lives, it was either drink, work or sleep. And I wasn't even a party goer, I've always been a nerd surrouded by similar types yet still, that culture was everywhere.
