The Sober Scoop

Self-medicating with Alcohol

I used to drink around 15 beers a day, all throughout the day -because I wanted to maintain a two-beer buzz. I wanted to feel slightly tipsy all day, but avoid getting "out of control." Everybody drinks in different ways, and there's no one "right" way to have a drinking problem. We're all on the same team in sobriety :) -no matter how we used to drink, but today I'm sharing my story, in case anyone can relate!
