John Gerber is a graphic designer and a fine artist in Minneapolis. He describes himself as someone who thinks and feels deeply. He has had an on again / off again relationship with alcohol. He stopped drinking completely between the ages of 30 and 40, but when his 40th birthday came around, he decided to celebrate. He describes it like this: "Then between 40 and 60, I think I drank probably to make up for those 10 years."
John never hit a rock bottom but he noticed things about himself that he wanted to change. He said, "Between 40 and 60, I think some things would've been better had I not been drinking at all." He has been sober since August of 2023.
