We’re living in an age when society is more open to considering alcoholism as a disease. According to the WHO, chronic drinking claimed 2.6 million lives worldwide in 2019. 600,000 of those lives taken were women.
TikTok user Sober Emily could’ve been a part of that statistic, had she allowed her drinking to go completely off the rails. The 27-year-old has been sober since 2023 and has since devoted her life to educating people about the serious dangers of alcoholism.
In one of her recent posts, she went into detail about how bad her life had gotten during her drinking days, to the point where she lived in absolute filth.
