The first time I ever got drunk was the night I lost my virginity, actually. And that should have been probably a warning sign from the beginning that this is not good for you. But it was the first time that I felt numb from my feelings and that I didn't have to feel in pain or just anxious all of the time.
Imagine starting your day with a simple walk in the park and a cup of tea. For Rachel Hechtman, these small rituals became lifelines in her journey from alcohol addiction to sobriety.
