This issue looks at prisoners’ perspectives on society’s beliefs towards alcohol, arguing that abstinence isn’t a universal solution and that those struggling with addiction should seek professional help. The author also compares alcohol use with other daily risks, such as speeding and overeating and mentions that support rather than disapproval is needed. It also explains broader prisoner discussions on coping strategies and personal responsibility while incarcerated.
