43, Female, Miami, US

I grew up drinking a sip of wine with my parents and the idea of alcohol being taboo wasn’t really a thing. I also never saw my parents drunk so I didn’t view it as very destructive. The first time I remember getting drunk was at a family friend’s new years party when I was 13, all the kids snuck some alcohol and by the end of the night most of us were puking. I felt so sick I didn’t drink again for a long time! I would say my relationship with alcohol is good at this point in my life, I drink socially.
