"The Heroin Diaries: A Year in the Life of a Shattered Rock Star" by Nikki Sixx with Ian Gittins

The Heroin Diaries: A Year in the Life of a Shattered Rock Star by Nikki Sixx and Ian Gittins is compelling reading. Nikki Sixx said that he hoped that he hoped that the book would keep its readers from wanting to do drugs. I am not sure that it would be successful. It might make people not want to do drugs to excess. At one place he said something about the possibility of the diaries being published as a book. His main goal when he was writing the diaries was not publication. In the diaries he wrote about dealing with depression and how depression can make daily living more difficult. With depression simple tasks like taking care of personal hygiene and getting out of bed can be difficult. There are commentaries from Nikki Sixx and other people in the book. I got the book from a public library. I would like to find a copy of the book to purchase. The only problem I have with the book is that it is poorly assembled and has a tendency to fall apart. I have heard that this is true about hardback and paperback copies.
