This memoir will be delivered in parts, beginning with the statistical data behind addiction, followed by memories of my life that exacerbated my alcohol use disorder. A painted picture of my existence will lead into the final part of gathered resources to help yourself or others who may struggle with addiction. I plan to bring insight and education from an addict's point of view. I feel exposed as I write and peel back the deepest layers of what has consumed me for many years. Bringing my inner self to the light is helping me gain confidence in my sobriety. This being said, I am not special. I am not the first student to suffer from addiction and I, unfortunately, will not be the last. My hope is that you, or others in your life, through my story, can gain the confidence that you need to achieve control of the life you always wanted to live. Even though you have an addiction, addiction does not have you, as more than 23 million United States adults struggle with addiction to drugs or alcohol.
