Since I have an addict in my family, I found this book very insightful. It was honest, funny, and very moving. Matthew did an excellent job of describing his journey to recovery from multiple addictions.
Even though I have a family member who struggled with addiction for 18 years, this book definitely helped me better understand the mindset and challenges of addiction, cravings, and withdrawal much more than I did before I read it! It was an open, honest, frank discussion of his struggles, mistakes, and fears.
Anyone who wants to understand addiction a bit more from an addict’s perspective should read this book! I applaud him for sharing his story, and for doing the hard work to overcome multiple addictions! I listened to the audiobook which was narrated by the author, and I found myself laughing out-loud many times while also understanding the gravity of his struggles, his pain, and the serious health conditions he has as a result of his addictions.
