What It Took From Me is not a memoir. It's not a guide to sobriety. It's a smart-ass, brutally honest drinking story - based on real events, told in short, punchy hits.
Inside vou'll find:
- Blackout nights that ended in jail cells and hospital beds.
- Drunk driving wrecks, bar fights, and one very unlucky rose bush.
- Hallucinations so real I believed I'd been kidnapped, stabbed a nurse, and found
This isn't about inspiration. This isn't about getting better. This is about what booze really does - the ugly, funny, humiliating, dangerous, and absolutely devastating moments it leaves in its wake.
If you want a feel-good story, go somewhere else. If you want the truth - the kind that makes you laugh, wince, and maybe squirm because it feels a little too familiar - then yeah, pour yourself a soda and settle in.
What It Took From Me isn't about survival. It's about the ride alcohol sold us - and what it really delivers.
