Bottom of the Bottle: A Poetic Memoir of an Addict

by Peyton Mack, Sarah Schmitz (Illustrator)

It's three am. The bottle is empty, the liquor store is closed, and the shakes are beginning. Your mind begins unraveling at the frays and everything in your life comes flooding through your thoughts. This book outlines mental illness, addiction, alcoholism, and relationships in the real life experience of poetry. You get a glance at my highs, lows, in betweens, and the light at the end of the tunnel. Giving a new perspective on the roller coaster of battling inner demons, most can relate to feeling the sense of hopelessness and lack of purpose. Look no further because you are not and will never be alone.
