 I'm in awe of Bryony Gordon and how openly she speaks about her addiction and mental health issues. Always have been, always will be, so this is not an objective review. She's kind of a role model for me in so many ways. In this one she not only delves into how the addiction made her behave appallingly, but also how she used the alcohol and drugs to quiet all the other stuff going on in her mind. OCD, anxiety and all the other crap human minds can torment themselves with. And that's something I could very much relate to. Ignoring / masking the real issues and emotions by other mindless/useless behaviour. Reading this book definitely made me want to work on my own issues / battle my own demons a bit more.
