Valentin Fetz (27) is a dry alcoholic. The young man from Bregenz spoke to "Krone" about how he deals with his addiction.

"Krone": Valentin, how do you deal with being offered alcohol?
Valentin Fetz: It happens to me quite often. It's not very difficult to say no now. I've decided to be relatively open about why I don't drink alcohol. Most people react positively and acknowledge it. I think that many people are aware that alcohol is omnipresent in our society and it's not easy to admit that you have an alcohol problem.
