In 2017 i wrote a story for the New York Times about what happened to my exhusband peter and was called the warrior of the attic, i did a lot of research for that piece, i did about a years worth of research and exploring with my family and my children and seeing if it was okay with them to go ahead and tell the world the story and figure out why we were doing it and what it meant to us in all the was largely to make some meaning out of something gutfeld arbitrary and shameful and guilty and also to try to understand what was going on with peter and understand what was going on in the Legal Profession in terms of Substance Abuse and depression and anxiety, after that came out i surprisingly had a viral life and had millions of shares and i got a lot of feedback from readers especially Young Lawyers wh
