Bianca desperately wanted to quit drinking. But when she tried, the alcohol withdrawal symptoms became so severe that she ended up in hospital.

After surviving cancer and chemotherapy, Bianca never imagined that alcohol dependence would become one of the most frightening experiences of her life.

Growing up surrounded by alcohol, she started drinking at 14 to cope with difficult emotions and feel accepted. Over the years, childhood trauma, an abusive relationship, and isolation contributed to her increasingly unhealthy relationship with alcohol.

Eventually, drinking was no longer about enjoyment. Her body had become physically dependent on it.

In this emotional conversation with Dave, Bianca opens up about her terrifying experience with severe alcohol withdrawal, why she filmed herself during her darkest moments, and what it really took to stop drinking.

Now more than a year sober, she shares how life without alcohol has helped her rediscover herself, rebuild her confidence, and experience genuine happiness.

This episode is a reminder that alcohol addiction is not simply a matter of willpower, and recovery is possible.
