Answer by Emma’s mommy
I was sexually abused as a child and I have never ever drank any alcohol. The abuse was horrible and affected me in many ways but I never turned to alcohol as a solution to my problems. My abuse has led to depression but no alcohol problems for me. But I am sure that some people drink as a coping mecanism. Everyone copes in different ways.
