I was a past alcoholic (which I have long since beaten, I can now drink socially without problems).

No. You are still an alcoholic till the day you die or you never were to begin with. You never "beat" alcoholism, especially since you still drink. For a alcoholic there's no such thing as "social" drinking, it's just drinking. And yes this is from personal experience.
Still a very sobering cautionary story. Would make a good tv show.
