Overcoming Addiction -- good topic?

I did OK in high school, in part was because I was partying… I spent 2.5 years after HS working/partying then got into rehab and now I’m in college doing great (4.0 GPA) and I’ve been sober for a year an a half, roughly.

Do you guys think this would make a good essay topic?

Could it be a double-edged sword? Some people don’t have a good image of “addicts” even though if they don’t use drugs/alcohol anymore… so I really don’t know if I could use this.

Thanks, and I’d appreciate any help!
