(tw: mentions of dr*g add*ction)

this was so eye opening. as i’ve been lucky enough to not experience substance add*ction or have family experience such, i never really thought about how much of an impact it might have on a person. 

this book really shows that everyone deemed a “dr*ggy” or “add*ct” has their own internal battle going on and sometimes the dr*g is the only thing keeping them going. 

i think this book also brought to light quite well how much teenagers feel so pressured in school to be perfect and live up to the expectations of people around them and just how destructive these expectations can be especially if they have underlying mental illness or other situations going on that makes performing well unrealistic. 

would definitely recommend. but check tws first pls.
