A heartbreaking and powerful memoir of a young man's plunge into the mental and physical depths of crystal meth addiction. A raw and harrowing portrait ' but not one without hope. 'It was like being in a car with the gas pedal slammed down to the floor and nothing to do but hold on and pretend to have some semblance of control. But control was something I'd lost a long time ago.' Nic Sheff was drunk for the first time at age 11. In the years that followed, he would regularly smoke pot, do cocaine and ecstasy and develop addictions to crystal meth and heroin. Even so, he felt like he would always be able to quit and put his life together whenever he needed to. It took a violent relapse one summer to convince him otherwise. In a voice that is raw and honest, Nic spares no detail in telling us the compelling, heartbreaking and true story of his relapse and the road to recovery. He paints an extraordinary picture of a person at odds with his past, with his family, with his substances and with himself.
"Nic Sheff's wrenching tale is told with electrifying honesty and insight." -- Armistead Maupin, author of "The Night Listener" and "Michael Tolliver Lives"
