Dopesick: Dealers, Doctors, and the Drug Company that Addicted America
by: Beth Macy
This wasn't a book a necessarily wanted to read, but it was one I felt I had to read. As someone who has been personally affected by opioid addiction I felt like I needed to educate myself. For anyone with a loved one, or who is struggling personally, with opioid addiction: this book is a good history lesson. This wasn't a difficult read as much as it is dense. Macy has done her research. I absolutely recommend this.
I'm struggling with what to say about this book. I was so affected by the stories of these people, but at the same time imagined my family members and their struggles while I read. I closed the book and cried.
