response from Mom
was sexually abused as a child and I never drank alcohol. The abuse was horrible and took me in many ways, but never turned to alcohol as a solution to my problems. My abuse lead to depression, alcohol problems but not for me. But I’m sure some people drink as a coping mecanism. Any deal in different ways. Add your own answer in the comments!
