April Has 365 Days

MY name is April and I'm an alcoholic. I have been in AA and sober for a year. I am much like every other member of Alcoholics Anonymous except for one thing. I am still in my teens. I had my first drink when I was eleven, at a party given by my parents. When I was fourteen I got in with an older crowd and began daily drinking. I drank all through high school and the disease of alcoholism took hold rapidly. Before I was out of high school I had been in Juvenile Hall quite a few times for drinking. By my eighteenth birthday I had been in the county drunk-tank.
