Beautiful Boy (2018)
↳ “I don’t feel like I have a disease. This isn’t like cancer. This is my choice. I put myself here.”
━━━━━━━━
“I was like every parent I know. We think this can never happen to our family — to our beautiful girls and beautiful boys. But I learned the hard way that no family is immune — anyone can become addicted. When it happens to someone we love, we think we’re alone, but we aren’t. There are millions of us … Beautiful Boy is dedicated to those who suffer the disease of addiction and those who love them. And it’s dedicated to those we’ve lost because of this disease. Sharing our stories about whatever we struggle with isn’t a panacea, but openness is the beginning of healing. You aren’t alone.”
— David Sheff
