My addiction to alcohol started as a child. I was the youngest of ten. By seven or eight years old, I felt different. I come from an Italian family and it was common to have a little blackberry brandy when we were sick. I can still remember the taste. I recall looking in my father’s dresser at a young age. When I got into my teens, I started drinking beer. As I aged, my alcholism progressed. I wanted to drop out of high school but I managed to graduate with a diploma after five years in high school. By my twenties, I knew I had some type of drinking problem, but I never took it seriously.
