Quotes by Amy Dresner (?)

“I know feelings are temporary, that they have a beginning, a middle, and an end. However, to an addict like me, they feel overwhelming, unbearable, and endless. Therein lies the violent urgency to fix or escape them.”
― Amy Dresner, My Fair Junkie: A Memoir of Getting Dirty and Staying Clean
