Pill Head: The Secret Life of a Painkiller Addict by Joshua Lyon

3.0

As other reviewers have mentioned, this book does seem a little disjointed. The author jumps around between personal stories, stories of friends and factual information regarding prescription drug use, abuse and distribution. Still, I'm a sucker for addiction memoirs and this one fit the bill. It also helped shed some light on why it is so difficult for me to obtain a legit prescription for pain killers (I suffer from severe migraines). All in all an interesting and enlightening read.
