Matthew Perry is telling his story. On Thursday, the "Friends" star announced his upcoming memoir, "Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing," which is set to be released in November. "So much has been written about me in the past," Perry began his social media announcement. "I thought it was time people heard from me." "The highs were high, the lows were low," the 52-year-old actor admitted. "But I have lived to tell the tale, even though at times it looked like I wouldn’t.

And it’s all in here. I apologize it’s not a pop-up book." It was previously revealed that Perry was writing a memoir in which he’ll discuss his time filming the sitcom, as well as his battles with addictions.

The book is a result of a reported seven-figure deal with Flatiron Books, a division of Macmillan, which won worldwide rights. "In the book, Perry takes readers behind the scenes and onto the soundstage of the most successful sitcom of all time while opening up about his private struggles with addiction," the publisher told Fox News Digital in a statement in October.
