    The abuse i went through in my childhood and teen years...the sexual abuse, bullying...developed panic and anxiety disorders, inherited severe case of hemiplegic migraines...found solace in alcohol and drugs..both prescription and illegal...it was hard quitting but i have progressed greatly..i drunk myself to severe acute pancreatitis..i used to drink dry gin, whiskey and vodka without a chaser...alcohol is mostly not the problem but underlying issues an individual is running away from

      Our own leaders are a reflection of the people. It's the citizens who need to unlearn their behavior while voting the corrupt and violent leaders. It's good that he has opened up about his own struggles with alcoholism, it's inspiring that the youth can learn our leaders are human and how they overcame their problems. Well in mheshimiwa

    Alcohol is not the issue to address, the underlying cause of the abuse is what needs to be addressed, some people are already predisposed to Alcohol abuse through mental disorders such as bipolar 1&2 and ADHD, and some suffer from trauma and abuse. Finding out the cause of the abuse is where to check.
