Carrie Fisher - Wishful Drinking
Carrie Fisher stopped by The Today Show on Monday to promote her memoir, Wishful Drinking.
Fisher's wickedly funny memoir, is "anecdotal, not an autobiography," she says. "My memory isn't good enough for that, not since the electroconvulsive therapy."
Fisher, 52, writes about her drug addiction and mental illness and also mentions her electroshock therapy.
"They put you to sleep, and the electricity is just in your head." she writes, "It wiped out four months of memory, but at my age, what's going to happen in four months that won't happen again?"
Her parents were Debbie Reynolds and Eddie Fisher, who left his wife for Elizabeth Taylor when Carrie was 2. Fisher describes her parents as "the Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston of the late '50s, only slightly more so — because they actually managed to procreate."
Twice married, Fisher is single now and has a daughter Billie, 16.
