    I didn't find Wurtzel to be selfish or self centered. When you are depressed, you are inward and you tend to only be able to focus on yourself because of the illness. The sluttiness, the drinking and drugs...that's just a form of self medication because she just wasn't getting the kind of help she needed from any outside sources.
