Started out not liking it... ended up loving it. Saw a lot of myself in my 20's in it.

Although I think that Carrie really didn’t have mental illness, I think that she just took drugs to often when she was young Jundt into a bad mental health condition. Then, instead of quitting recreational drugs, she merely mixed in psychiatric drugs. This in a lack of self-care led to her early death, and surely there is a lesson for all of us to learn from the wisdom of Carrie Fisher. I’m not sure she was actually bipolar. I think it was a side effect of recreational drugs, which she never did quit for any longer than 11 months of her life when they claim that she was sober and this was the happiest time of her life, but if she was so happy at that time, why did she relapse?… (més)

The princess diarist is a good follow up to the book wishful drinking, which contains more stories that she didn’t talk about in wishful drinking that were interesting. The Teddy Kennedy story absolutely held me spellbound.

Don’t love the way she writes, but appreciate her poetry and related to her in some ways as a nineteen year old very insecure in herself.
