Mimi Fiedler became an alcoholic as a teenager. She describes it as an inner "pressure to drink". A way of numbing one's own feelings. As a child, she was sexually abused, and her childhood trauma later led her to alcohol addiction. Now the lies are finally over! Mimi Fiedler speaks openly about her long-term addiction in the Kölner Treff. The former actress drank for a total of 30 years of her life. Many attempts to stay sober failed. It was an interplay of feelings of guilt and shame. Although she was able to hide her addiction for a long time, the facade gradually crumbled. She fell down the stairs or woke up covered in blood with lacerations. When she drank in the evening, she could no longer learn her acting lines by heart. Blackouts during filming alerted her colleagues, but no one addressed the problem. You can find out in the Kölner Treff what support she would have wanted from those around her, why she hid her alcohol addiction and how she feels today as a sober alcoholic! ????
