“Quit Drinking or I’ll Live With Dad Forever” | Keri Anderson’s Sobriety Story

“Quit Drinking or I’ll Live With Dad Forever” | Keri Anderson’s Sobriety Story

Keri Anderson knew her drinking was getting worse. She was blacking out, experiencing panic attacks, going to work hungover, and drinking one to two bottles of wine a night. Still, she couldn’t stop.

Then her 16-year-old daughter showed up at her house while Keri was drunk and gave her an ultimatum: quit drinking or lose their relationship.

Two days later, Keri entered detox.

In this episode of The Sober New Yorker, Keri shares how her drinking escalated after separating from her husband, what was really happening behind closed doors, and why even after her daughter’s ultimatum, her biggest fear entering treatment was how she would live the rest of her life without alcohol.

Keri also talks about spending 90 days in treatment, rebuilding her relationship with her daughter, finding faith and sober community, and what life looks like after 10 years without alcohol.

Today, Keri is ready to stop being quiet about her sobriety and start sharing the story that changed her life.
