Adrienne Banfield-Norris Celebrates 31 Years of Sobriety

SHE SURRENDERED TO WIN –

Dec. 23, 2021 – Ramsay explained that she’s able to now process her feelings “consciously” rather than mask them with a drink. 

“Alcohol and antidepressants do not mix well at all. And that is something, unfortunately, I learned the hard way,” she wrote.  “I was going out a lot, I was missing class because I’d been out. I was going clubbing way too much. I wasn’t enjoying myself and I was struggling a lot more but didn’t notice because I would just think that it was just a hangover or just a lot of work,” she said.

The 21-year-old ended her post by expressing her gratitude and explaining that she’s doing the best she can to learn from this chapter of her life. 

“As with everything I have been through, it has been a learning experience and I feel lucky to be able to post this message today, to continue to spread awareness and break the stigma surrounding mental health,” she wrote. 

Ramsay’s father commented on her post and sent plenty of love to his daughter.

“What an incredible young lady and words can’t explain enough how proud you make me feel love you so much Dad,” the chef wrote.
