Nic Sheff Quotes

• It was like being in a car with the gas pedal slammed down to the floor and nothing to do but hold on and pretend to have some semblance of control. But control was something I'd lost a long time ago.

• It's not that I don't appreciate my life sober, but it's like there are two different people battling inside of me. I want to be good, do good, be a worker among workers, a friend among friends. But there's also this part of me that is so dissatisfied with everything, If I'm not living on the verge of death, I feel like I'm not really living.

• I always get so overwhelmed trying to do everything perfectly. I can't do a job and not put everything I have into it. I need to be the best employee, the best co-worker, the best whatever. I need everyone to like me and I just burn out bending over backward to make that happen. Having people be mad at me is my worst fear. I can't stand it. There is this crazy fear I have of being rejected by anyone - even people I don't really care about. It's always better to leave them first, cut all ties, and disappear. They can't hurt me that way - no one can.

• Y aunque he hecho muchas cosas vergonzosas, no me avergüenzo de quién soy. No me avergüenzo de quién soy porque sé quién soy. He intentado abrirme en canal y sacar a la luz todo lo que llevo dentro, aceptando mis debilidades y mis puntos fuertes, sin intentar ser otra persona, porque eso nunca funciona, ¿verdad? Porque eso nunca funciona, ¿verdad? Así que mi reto es ser auténtica. Y creo que hoy lo soy. Creo que lo soy.

• The dark is settling in. The sky glows yellow- pale- anemic from the city lights. The Tenderloin at night is a real horror show. Every 3 feet someone is accosting you with a plea for a handout or the offer of drug or sex. The men and women wander the streets and alleys with a threatening, violont want. Takers looking to take, hustlers looking to hustle, all trying to satisfy a craving that is parpatually unsatisfiable. And tonight I'm one of them.
