A fascinating insight into 'crystal meth' addiction. A very personal, first-hand account of a doctor living in Newtown and Enmore, addicted to 'crystal meth', and his subsequent journey through recovery, persecution, the mental health system, being labeled schizophrenic, suspension from practice, and his struggle back into the workplace.

We explore the highly sexualising effect of this drug, its association with risk-taking behaviour, in a very frank, open and honest way. We explore 'ChemSex' culture, including the sexual health consequences that result from 'meth' use, from an author who went on to specialise in the field.

...

PROBABLY THE MOST DETAILED FIRST-HAND ACCOUNT THERE IS ON BOTH THE MENTAL AND SEXUAL HEALTH SIDE OF 'METH' USE AND ITS RAPID RISE IN SOCIETY TODAY.
