An emotional new diary comic from the award-winning creator of My Lesbian Experience with Loneliness and My Solo Exchange Diary. Nagata Kabi’s downward spiral is getting out of control, and she can’t stop drinking to soothe the ache of reality. After suffering from unbearable stomach pains, she goes to a clinic, where she is diagnosed with pancreatitis—and is immediately hospitalized. A new chapter unfolds in Nagata Kabi’s life as she struggles to find her way back to reality and manga creation in the wake of her breakdown.

Praise for My Alcoholic Escape from Reality

"...Alcoholic Escape is not only about addiction: it's about the aftermath, about coping with life changes and even finding joy in little moments like discovering foods she can eat, the small delights of non-alcoholic beer and fish paste products, and Nagata finding her feet as she finally decides to draw the manga itself. I think at the end of the day, a core message of Alcoholic Escape is that there's joy in the smallest victories, even if there's a lot of hurt that comes before, and unfortunately after." --Mercedez Clewis, Anime News Network

"My Alcoholic Escape From Reality is one of the most memorable comics I read this past year." --Zack Quaintance, Comics Bookcase
