Fentanyl vs. Heroin: "Trash high"—no legs, not the same rush, felt grateful when heroin disappeared

First Shot: A friend made him do it for free—"Misery loves company"—then couldn't stop

Mom's Heart Attack: 4 days after OD, mom has a heart attack from stress

Hustles: Selling weed, flipping Suboxone, scamming friends, "like a credit card"—balances, fronts, juggling

Methadone Clinic Madness: Working in the clinic, finding crack pipes, wild characters, hustles in the waiting room

Recovery Pivot: Got clean after the ferry breakup, went to White Deer Run, cut methadone taper on day 3, Old Testament-level detox, started working the 12 steps, counselor Heath changed his life

Working in Treatment: From the methadone clinic to Ascendant, saw the whole spectrum

Writing: Wrote Slingshot Diaries in Maryland, self-published hundreds of copies, found purpose
