    About this ebook

    The pandemic of prescription drug addiction afflicts not only abusers, but also legitimate patients. Many are prescribed potent opiates to ease their pain. This relief can come at a high price.


     


    Amber takes you through her tumultuous journey into drug addiction; both legal and illegal. Her brutally honest memoir, Wreckage: Prescription Drug Addiction - Caught by Surprise, speaks to people of all types about this looming enigma. She sheds light on the difference between addiction and dependence, and shares how she also learned to endure pain and other related issues. Through drastic changes in life, her dry sense of humor brings comic relief to difficult situations. Her motive is to reassure anyone battling these problems that there are healthy ways to cope. With education and understanding, addicts and their loved ones can look this baffling enemy in the eye and beat it.

    Amber Dee

    Amber grew up in the rough outskirts of 5th ward, Houston, TX. In and out of trouble (mostly in) throughout her youth, she finally went sober to become a mother. As a nurse, she worked in hospitals for 15 years. After a bout with hepatitis C (now in remission), she left nursing to major in music. She now teaches guitar and writes and records original songs with her musician/producer husband, Mark. Passionate about victims' rights, she volunteers for the local women's shelter and in the ministry. Family and friends see her as quirky and determined; a little off-beat in a funny way. Almost oblivious to huge obstacles, Amber hurdles over them, just doing her thing. She's a survivor who has learned to laugh at life.
