Trelawney recovers from alcohol addiction
Trelawney recovers from alcohol addiction Following the fall of Voldemort, Professor Sibyl Trelawney has given up the bottle. Known for her occasional sherry drinking episodes while teaching Divination at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, Trelawney has now been dry for many years. "It hasn't been easy, but one must understand the pressure of possessing the inner eye. Around the time of the Dark Lord, so many thoughts were running rampant through my mind. It drove me to indulge in the special sauce a little too much."

Trelawney's sponsor, who requested to remain anonymous, says that she has been known to still have the occasional outburst. "From time to time, Sibyl will have a vision that disturbs her to the point of running to the alcohol closet in hopes of drinking [visions] away."

The picture above depicts Sibyl recently attempting to get her hands on a bottle of Grey Goose. Thankfully, Professor McGonagall was present to hold back Sibyl when she had a vision, so no damage was done. Our thoughts are with Trelawney as she continues to make a full recovery.

I am so glad Mugglenet reports news of the Wizarding world and not just the muggle world. I would send Trelawney a bottle of wine to congratulate her, but that would kind of be going backward.

Trelawney, you are truly a role model to anyone battling an addiction. It takes amazing strength of character. Though I do not possess the inner eye, I can forsee a life of happiness, sobriety, and tea leaves in your future:) Keep up the good work!
