“This week on Wellbeing, we are talking with former alcoholic Tori McCarthy. Tori was just 13 was she picked up her first drink. She soon found that her drinking habits were more extreme than that of her peers. Going into adulthood, while her peers were progressing in life, all she “wanted to do was go to the pub”. In this episode, she delves into the effect that drinking had on her relationships, life, view of herself, and how she came out at the end of the tunnel. Tune in next week to hear a former alcoholic share his views on approaching recovery.”
