I considered alcohol my superpower. It helped me to relax, work hard, and play hard. I was successful, and I had it all figured out. Until, I didn’t. I finally came to understand that, despite being a veteran expert at it, I truly sucked at drinking. My best friend alcohol had become my enemy and was holding me back in life.
