QUOTES BY Drew Pinsky


We have a pandemic of childhood trauma.

The road to sobriety is not easy and rehabilitation and the recovery process are not to be taken lightly.

Narcissism is not about self love. It's a clinical trait that belies a deep sense of emptiness, low self-esteem, emotional detachment, self-loathing, extreme problems with intimacy.

Patrick Melrose' is a frantically accurate exploration of the addict mind tormented by trauma, magnificently brought to life by Benedict Cumberbatch. At its core, it is a story that has a timeless quality with echoes of Cervantes.

Childhood trauma is really what puts the rocket fuel behind addiction.

I don't want people to think I'm exploiting my followers.

Narcissism is the result of longstanding behavioral patterns that reflect fixed brain functioning. It requires a lot of motivation to change these patterns.

An intervention is much more than telling someone they have a problem in a unified fashion; treatment options should be in place.

All medicine is gradations and differences and nuances. And there's such a thing as natural recovery: people spontaneously get better. It happens.
