dc.description.abstractThis autoethnographic essay examines a drinking life through various reflections of my past, sketching my journey toward sobriety. For years, I engaged in an intricate battle with the bottle, trying to control my drinking. It took many drinking episodes for me to see just how unpredictable a drinking life could be and how addiction manifests itself. Now, in sobriety, I mourn the loss of a drinking life but live in a world free of alcoholic trauma.
