After I listened to the reflector episode I was kinda slack jawed, I wish there was something like this when I quit years ago.
Like you I loved it,but knew it had to end.
Mine ended with total psychological and emotional collapse. So yeah, I’m gonna read this puppy. Thanks for enduring the sharing part, I know it’s gross and such.
Hi! I'm a friend of Jesse's; I was actually his nanny! LOL I ordered your book and I can't wait to read it! Tell Jesse I said hi! Good luck with the book!
Congratulations, Katie! Alcohol destroyed my family when I was a kid and if this book can help even one person avoid the situation I grew up in, it was worth writing. I can't wait to see how many other books you publish before Jesse finishes his. <3
Bought. Naltrexone saved me and my family. The world needs to know about this option.
(Your results may vary. Side effects include listening to B and R while walking, random spouting-off in the comments section, and an aversion to "gender affirming care." Do not take Katie's Book if allergic to Katie's Book, and tell your doctor if you experience a loss of consciousness while reading it [not sure how you're supposed to do that if you're unconscious, but...]
Does the trans issue have to infect everything? Some trans people have issues with alcohol and could benefit from Naltrexone, just like anyone other abuser/sufferer.
No it doesn't have to infect everything. I was making a joke or trying to be humorous. I could have mentioned an aversion to taxes, to dirty toilet seats, or any one of a million things. I didn't choose those things--but did choose "gender affirming care" to have a laugh about.
Sorry my mention of it pushed you over the edge--don't let it drive you to drink! :-)
Denial almost killed me. 6 years here. Congrats on being AF whatever your path is looking forward to adding this to my QuitLit section! This Naked Mind by Annie Grace changed me many moons ago and haven’t had a drink in almost 8 years.
Drink Your Way Sober sounds like the name of a Troy McClure infomercial. I love it!

ohhh! Tell us some stories of tiny Jesse please
Tiny? I heard he was 5’10” when he was born.
I knew Jesse had a fairly wealthy upbringing. But I didn't know it was nanny without an Eastern European or hispanic name wealthy.
Wow...

Wonderful, Katie. Aren’t you marvellous. So, so proud. We got sober around the same time, so when you told your story it felt very personal.
You have such a huge influence and impact on those of us who don’t quite fit in. Well, on me anyway. Thank you.
Is there an audio book coming?
Should Jesse do the audio?
I heard Chase Strangio has volunteered.
Yes, I would be v v interested in this option!

Will you sign my Kindle version, please?
`an aversion to "gender affirming care."'

Naltrexone helped me.

(Glad naltrexone helped you too!)
Preordered! Should I request that my local public library buy it too?
10/10 on headline and subhead. No notes.
Congratulations, Katie!!
PS Great title!!
Pre-ordered. Glad to hear this worked for you, Katie. You’re a good egg.
I can't believe the publisher is ok with "A Not Jesse Singal Book." Like it's going to be one in a series?
Pre-Ordered so fast!! Hope she does a book tour :D
Yes! Come to Northampton, Mass, Katie. Bookstores galore (or at least what in 2025 one could call “galore”).
That would require travel and we know how she feels about that...
Helping her sell more books than Jesse is a very convincing pitch.
Pre-ordered, and interested not just as a listener but as someone who’s had alcohol issues. Exciting!

I pre-ordered too. Thanks for talking and writing about this Katie. It’s kind of an eerie message from the universe for me.
