The author relates how, after having embraced sobriety, her deep-seeded rage led to problems both emotional and professional, including a failed relationship and writer's block, and it was not until she applied research from a book on anger to her own life that she learned what denial of her rage had cost her.

The author discusses her relationship with alcohol, telling how she began drinking at the age of fourteen and continued drinking for the express purpose of getting drunk, bolstering her courage, or medicating her moods, and sharing the reasons why she decided to give up alcohol nine years later.
