Hi my name is Sofia. I have been struggling with alcohol ever since I first got drunk at 14. I never knew my limits and I have always talked myself into thinking I could control it. This past year has been by far the worst because it's my first year working under my masters degree and I have allowed my drinking to creep into my weekdays which has jeopardized my attendance and performance. I decided to make a permanent change this summer before going back to work in one week and it's been the best decision ever. Thank you for being such a great community to give me a sense of belonging. Something I have never felt.
