About this book
David Poses' ground-breaking memoir, "The Weight of Air," details the author's battle with addiction and mental illness. David continued using drugs despite undergoing medical detox inpatient treatment twelve-step programs and a halfway home by the time he was nineteen perceiving it as a sign of sadness despite the specialists' insistence that addiction was the issue.
When David eventually discovers an evidence-based treatment that not only saves his life but also helps him thrive, the book serves as both a harsh critique of our inadequate response to the opioid problem and a testimony to the potential for success.
