“It was not always good. The reason why our relationship wasn't good, it didn't have to do with Denise, it was my addiction. And that's why all these relationships I've had with Denise or Charlie, or my mother, or anyone, they're great when I'm sober, but then you can sully it all up, unfortunately. And this is the devastating thing about addiction is that it affects everybody, not just the addict.”
