Due to my ADHD, I did not do very well in grade school, but, later, in my mid-20's, I earned my bachelor's and master's degrees at Montclair State University in Montclair, New Jersey. I earned Summa cum Laude honors with a 3.85 grade point average for my bachelor's degree and 4.00 for my master's degree.
I enrolled in a three-year doctoral program in Experimental Psychology at Fordham University. That was a wake-up call for me since I am an atheist and Fordham is a Catholic University where half the courses are taught by priests.
I always wanted to write since way back in grammar school. I never had the time or the attention span to sit down and do any serious writing until a couple of years ago when I got my ADHD under control. My book initially focuses on being molested at a very young age. I was quite promiscuous, and my bisexuality got me into a lot of interesting situations even at a very young age.
The later part of the book focuses on many of my drug experiences including selling drugs and serving a three-to-five-year sentence in the New Jersey prison system. I served 27 months of the sentence for possession and sale of drugs.
My alcoholic life was a whirlwind of brief sexual encounters and drinking at bars in Greenwich Village. My sexual identity was non-existent. I had no sexual preference of a female over a male or vice-versa. I was just getting started on my academic career as a free man. I had taken my first few college courses in prison and was determined to earn at least a bachelor's degree. In no time at all I was consuming alcohol before every social gathering whether it was at home, at work, or on the university campus. I appeared aloof to many acquaintances, but my quiet nature was due to my intense anxiety.
As the years advanced, I chronicled the huge impact alcoholism had on my life and my urgent attempts to work towards solutions to my inner turmoil. As my alcoholism progressed, I got closer and closer to losing everything I had worked and strived for. My personal relationships were falling apart. My work was suffering and my relationships with co-workers were becoming strained. I needed a solution and I needed it immediately.ver menos
