Read his book, Tweak. It was an amazing novel; I couldn't put it down. Having been a meth user & addict myself, I have to say that this book did help me on my journey to recovery and gave me more insight as to what meth can do to you, and upon reading that and going to rehab, I was able to stop before things spiraled out of control where there was no turning back. So all in all, I HAVE to say... THANK YOU, Nic Sheff, for your brilliantly written novel and all the inspiration it gave me. I am now clean & sober, pursuing my carreer as a newspaper journalist, in college, and doing much better. Thanks, my mentor. You are an amazing person, and congratulations on your own personal escape from the most powerful drug ive ever known. Good luck in your future, and thank you once again :)

he has a sequel to it called we all fall down, it's also really good

I wish I could meet him.. all the things he describes about how he feels are just exactly the way I feel and have felt for my whole life.. It's nice to know that I'm not the only person who's feeling like this..

when he relapsed with "zelda" I literally started bawling it was so frustrating and sad and and I just wanted to hug him and scream at him

Nic you are awsesome! I have read you book 2 times and am reading it for my second time. You're book has greatly touched me.

Way to go Nic! I'm reading your Dad's book right now, "Beautiful Boy". The process of addiction to recovery is so universal, yet the individual stories are each so very unique.

I am reading his book We All Fall Down: Living With Addiction...such a good book.

Nic Sheff is amazing. Enough said. His words flow through my veins.

Favorite author.

nic sheff.. i love you

@paulab662 there is hope. I'm an addict myself, about Nic's age, and there is hope for all addicts from pot to heroin and crystal meth. We just need to see that we have people around us who truly care and sometimes it takes a lot of bad to get an addict to realize so many things they are blocking by getting high. I know my mom worries about me so much, and all I can do is try and do the right thing. I hope your child can find a way through the addiction. I'll say a prayer for you. Take care :)

nic sheff is my hero.

Young man, the time with drugs and hurting your family can never be gotten back. As a parent of an addict this is so very hurtful to everyone. I think of the addict and wish that none of this happened to the addict and the family. So much wasted time and energy.

i just read his book, it was cool, i liked it cuz i'm from san francisco, and he describes it well

his book is soo good. prolly the best book i've ever read. hes so cute too :]

Part of the 'problem' was that he even wrote the first book, with only 18 mos of sobriety. Not long at all, and after 4-5 rehabs? Then after the book, he went out. Then he gets another book.....oy. Telling a drunkalog is one thing, telling how you stay sober is another. I wish Nic all the best, as a privileged white kid he really went to extreme depths but that wasn't enough to stop. His dad's book is very good read also and it explains the science of the brain that he researched and how the drug damaged brain is itself a hiderance to recovery. It's a hard drug to recover from, as are others of course. But the early book and attention and stress to be so much more, to make up for the past, it was not a good thing. I look forward to the January 2019? release of his collab w his dad, hope it's great!

I love the little chuckle he does when he hears someones cell phone. Lol

you are like the most amazing person. wish i could meet you. :P

I KNOW RIGHT?!!

Same, bro.

woah i live in new mexico! does anyone know if he ever speaks here?

im doing a book project on tweak and its due tomorrow...what is the name of the final rehab center he went to?

Oh, I love Nic, he was rolling his eyes a bit haha, he must get sick of telling this story :)

Hes an amazing guy, how did you get him to come to the school?

So, I'm in love.

nic sheff is a real inspiration.. not to mention a hottie!

@bella15710 How many minutes ?? :/

I go to school where his brother went

hah hes cute and his books are amazing!

i read this book i didnt think he would be a cuteee guy

REALLY?! WHATS GOING ON WITH HIM NOW?!

@t4k3n000 4:38 he goes "...I looked at her and I knew *phone rings*"

@bella15710 Whereeee whennnn

In the second book he said that he left from the only men treatment in New Mexico ... Does he lie ?

mikeandcooper - try the public library. That's what I did.

@t4k3n000 go to the time 4:38 then watch haha

Aww heis kindaa cute -Bre

I love it when people exaggerate their real story to make a more Dynamic compression in a speech setting.

wow he speaks really well, esp after having used so many drugs. had he been a student at bransons? (doubt it) or which school in marin would allow him smoke pot all day? cut the hair! lose the long dirty sweater! how is this person now?
