A definitive guide to the disease of addiction from an addict who has struggled with heroin, alcohol, sex, fame, food and eBay. It will help anyone who is an addict (or loves an addict) make the first tentative steps to recovery. Russell Brand gently and humorously recounts his story and shares the advice and wisdom he has gained from this thirteen years of recovery. He wants to speak to those suffering along the full spectrum of addiction - from the serious, life-threateneing misuse of substances to the more subtle but still troubling crutches, such as getting trapped in unhealthy and destructive relationships to avoid difficult feelings.
