“By the end of season three, I was spending most of my time figuring out how to get 55 Vicodin a day — I had to have 55 every day, otherwise I`d get so sick. It was a full-time job: making calls, seeing doctors, faking migraines, finding crooked nurses who would give me what I needed,” Perry writes. “Friends, Lovers and the Big Terrible Thing” by Matthew Perry might be printed by Headline on November 1.
