“Last December, that’s the last time I was really happy. Six months clean. Longest period of time I’d gone without using since I was a kid in the White House. The fishbowl, you know, as they call it. The bubble around the President’s family. All the eyes, the judgments, the expectations made me feel very alone. My twin brother could handle it, but me, not so much. So booze, weed, pills made me feel a lot better. And then I found coke. And then everything fell by the wayside. So my life’s been pretty much a blur. Highs and lows. Mostly lows. I know there’s no cure for this thing, but there’s recovery.”
