I Survived Alcoholism

At 23 Fraser was dying from alchoholism.

At the age of 14 he started drinking to fit in with friends when he was in the park or at house parties, he found that alcohol helped him hide some of his insecurities but he soon found he wanted more and more. It got to the point where Fraser was being arrested for his own safety and taken to psychiatric wards.

As time went on Fraser couldn't see any way out of this vicious cycle and decided to take an overdose. Luckily, Fraser was found before it was too late and this is his story of recovery and hope.
