In his memoirs, Matthew Perry writes of his addiction to drugs, alcohol, and medication: “I didn’t know how to stop; this addiction just keeps getting stronger. That is, it gets worse the older you get.” Friends, Lovers and The Big Terrible Thing is a book that touches you and doesn’t let go because Perry is brutally honest with himself and writes honestly about the fact that someone can have everything – fame, wealth, respect – and still feel so lonely that he overcomes the pain with alcohol and Must fight drugs. The New York Times In her obituary for Perry, who died on October 28 at the age of 54 in his home in Pacific Palisades near Los Angeles, described this book as his greatest success – and not his role as Chandler Bing in the TV series series Friends. That had helped him achieve fame, wealth and respect; Perry wrote: “Sometimes dreams have to come true for you to see that they were the wrong ones.”
