Historia5 out of 5 stars 8
The author's young adulthood basically amounts to a how-to primer for addiction. Paranoia and impulsiveness, obsession, and manipulation. Throw in compulsion, false pride, fear and dishonesty, all driven by self-centered thinking. The gateway behavior for all the others. Blessed with a good memory, almost granular for certain events and circumstances, Mike Matson turns his journalist's eye on his own past and the result is an honest, unflinching look at his decades-long struggle with addiction.

A gripping tale
Revisado: 01-26-25
This story goes deeper than a tale of dependency. This is a story of a generational curse and a social acceptance of a vice that leads to control or out of control issues. Mike’s ability to tell his story guides the listener to self evaluate their own challenges, whether that be alcohol dependency or something else.
The incremental timeline establishes a build up to a bigger problem. The story follows a professional who eventually realizes that he’s has a problem that he can’t deal with himself. He finds greater purpose and uses his own experience to offer help to countless others. Many thank yous to the author.
