White Rabbit: A Doctor's Own Story of Addiction, Survival and Recovery

On the outside, she was a bright and popular teenager. On the inside, Martha Morrison lived the secret life of an addict. She sneaked her mother's painkillers at age twelve, and for the next seventeen years took every drug--from alcohol to heroin--that she could obtain. Her addiction nearly killed her. But it didn't stop her from excelling in medical school and becoming a doctor. WHITE RABBIT is the profoundly personal story of an addicted physician. Of a professional whose torment was hidden until her painful journey to recovery began. And of a survivor who beat the odds against drugs--and stayed alive.
