Drinking to escape my loneliness is a new autobiographical account by Kabi Nagata. This new story arrives on June 15 at Pika Graphic. The author explores the subject of alcoholism with great sensitivity. The mangaka gives us another introspective story after Solitude of another kind and Diary of my solitude. She addressed her sexual orientation. In her other book, she spoke this time about her depression caused by her success. The look of his loved ones and his family. Despite a great success, Kabi Nagata struggles to find his way. She takes refuge in alcohol that serves as an escape to cope with everything she may feel. Due to excessive alcohol consumption, she is affected by acute pancreatitis. So we dive into his side to observe him in his daily fight against his addiction. Drinking to escape my loneliness is his new creation, a story very different from what we are used to highlighting on Justfocus.
