So as I redo my resume from my previous cycle, it's very clear to me that becoming sober has greatly improved my life and frankly I think I am much more put together as a person and will be a stronger candidate for law school. My drug of choice was alcohol which is something I know a lot of people struggle with even if it's in private. Now...I'm not really sure if I want to or if it's necessary to bring that up in a personal statement. But I attend a support group (not AA) for my sobriety and I am unsure if that's like unprofessional to say? I thought about mentioning it in the post-college or personal activities section.
On one hand, this is something I'm proud of and it means a lot to me to be a supportive person in their sobriety journey. But I also can see maybe an admissions officer saying (hm, that person had alcohol problems before, he shouldn't come to our school).
this Is an annoying stimulus !
