Real Talk: Misadventures and Lessons from Hard Drug Use
Once I started, I wouldn't be able to stop doing it. So I recognized it as something that I never really wanted to go down that hole anyway, because I know I have an addictive enough personality that so, thankfully for that, I had in my head that drinking was my problem and that cocaine wasn't as bad for you.
