<p><strong>Jackie Elliott loves her wine</strong>.&nbsp;<strong>It makes her feel confident, and helps to relieve her anxiety and worry.</strong>&nbsp;Drinking wine is&nbsp;<em>normal</em>. Drinking wine is&nbsp;<em>fun.</em></p>

<p>Until it isn&rsquo;t.</p>

<p>Jackie refuses to believe she has problem, after all she doesn&rsquo;t live under a bridge, she is still quite thin (and therefore&nbsp;<em>healthy),&nbsp;</em>and is quite able to function!</p>

<p>But Jackie&rsquo;s &ldquo;Drunken Magical Thinking&rdquo; is propelling her towards disaster. Her life is starting to disintegrate.</p>

<p>The party really comes to end when Jackie starts to have blackouts. Not &ldquo;falling down drunk&rdquo; blackouts, but complete gaps in her memory after drinking only a few glasses. She can&rsquo;t recall conversations, phone calls, and most nights, she can&rsquo;t remember going to bed.</p>

<p>Jackie&rsquo;s love affair with Wine must come to an End.</p>

<p>&#39;Sober Ever After&#39; is not a 'Dead Drunk in a Ditch' sensational story - it&#39;s part memoir, part self help guide from an ordinary woman who fell for the Big Con - that alcohol is not only harmless and fun, but we can&#39;t live without it.&nbsp;</p>

<p>&#39;Sober Ever After&#39; is for everyone who has the vague nagging worry that there must be more to life than chardonnay, cable and the couch.</p>
