Description

"An experimental account of one woman's quest to shed addictive substances and behaviors from her life-which dares to ask if we're really better off without them"--

In January 2021, Smith watched as insurgents stormed the U.S. Capitol. It felt like the culmination of eight months of pandemic anxiety... and she needed a drink. Or one of the other substances she relied on to get through each day. Thus began her experiment to remove one addictive behavior from her life each month, to see if sobriety was really all it was cracked up to be. Here she describes the effects of withdrawal from alcohol, sugar, caffeine, cannabis, and social media-- and provides a wry observation on addiction, media, work, and pandemic behavior. -- adapted from back cover
