I'm Dancing as Fast as I Can was a huge best seller. It was made into a movie starring Jill Clayberg. The book was way ahead of its time when first published. When the book was written the danger of addiction to prescription drugs was barely recognized and the authority of doctors was virtually sacrosanct. But one woman's honesty - Barbara Gordon's honesty - changed all that. I'm Dancing as Fast as I Can is just as relevant today as a survivor story and as an inspiration to anyone whose world suddenly implodes.
