Raw depiction of struggles with addiction and how it destroyed his relationships and almost his career. Difficult to read such sadness and despair about someone who brought so much joy with his humour and wit.

Surprisingly this book only lightly covered his career on the sit-com friends for which he is best known. This mainly focused on the heartbreaking trials of Matty trying (and failing) to overcome his addictions which ultimately lorded over his life.

The writing felt bit disjointed with timelines of events and at times quite repetitive which made it tricky to read. 

Chapter 10 feels like it has lots of word-for-word repetition of earlier chapters and having bad Deja vu - not ideal in a book that’s only 250 pages long

Occasionally it also came across overly  “woe is me” - which I suppose is the mindset of battling addiction - but made it hard to empathise with on occasion so for that I doubt I would re-read. 

That being said a very good book depicting the scary world of addiction.
