Azalea Cosmos would rather believe her psychosis is from all the drugs she's been abusing than the disorder she was diagnosed with, the disorder her father has: bipolar type 1 with psychotic features. Mary Casiano injects anabolic steroids into her muscles, reminding her of how her mother would inject heroin into her veins. Despite trying, she knows she can't run fast or far enough to escape her scurrilous past, the memories of her mother selling her virginity to her step-daddy to afford her drug of choice―and to fulfill his request to prove her love for him, above anyone. Virginia Karlsen has become increasingly obsessed with what lies beyond the blue sky she watched her mother fall from, her tangled in her parachute, plummeting to her death. She snorts more and more coke to stay up at all hours of the night, exploring with her telescope. Just one new discovery would make her eternally happy-so she believes. The young women meet at Horizonhab, a rehab for women, young and old, to foster bonds and personal growth from shared experiences-but some of the experiences shared are sheer horror. The deep roots behind the hankers to latch onto a coping mechanism as powerful and dangerous as an illicit drug become clear as more stories are shared.

USER SERIES 1 Micah Rex: He's handsome, dangerous, reckless. An addict. When he walks into a room, people notice. People are scared of him, people don't look him in the eye. AJ Ferro: She's cute, nice respectful. A helper. When she walks in a room, people usually get flowers. People love her, people want to be her friend. Despite her cheery nature and soft words AJ has never had it easy when it came to addiction -or depression. Without his addiction, sadness and anger Micah doesn't know who he is -and he hates not knowing things. And, of all places, they meet at a rehab center. He looked at her and saw a peppy girl with no future. She looked at him and saw a troubled boy with a bad past. Micah wants to die, AJ wants him to live. It's only a matter of time before one of them breaks through or breaks the other. - I was 12 the first time I took a hit off a joint at a party, smoked a blunt by myself and bought a bong. I was 13 when I started drinking alcohol for fun. 14 the first time I took ecstasy at a college party I snuck into, the same age I lost my virginity. This was the first time I went to a mental institution because it's also the year I first tried to kill myself. 15 the first time I smoked meth, took a bump of cocaine, shot myself up with heroine. This was the first time I got sent to rehab, it didn't work and I came out worse. I was 16 when I tried to commit three times in the same year, the last time I got my heart to stop for 30 seconds. That year was also the first time I snorted Hydrocodone, getting me started in opiates, I experimented with Xanax and liked it. And I was a month from 17 when I got sober. - "Fuck you." I snap. "You already have." Micah bites out. "And I'm pretty fucking sure you liked it too, if your orgasms were anything to go by." - "I want-" Micah stopped, running his fingers through his hair. "Never mind what I want. What do you want?" His voice is quieter now, more gentle. "You."

This is a novel for the brokenhearted. For those who can't stand the state of the world: the division, the hate, the money-over-everything mentality, the relentless push for more, more, more. The story confronts harsh realities-our dying planet, oligarchy, struggles with suicidal thoughts. If these trigger you, proceed with care, but you might find unexpected solace in sharing this journey with others wrestling with the same awareness. Because while I write of darkness, I also write of love, friendship, and perseverance. We are all in this together... like it or not. I post 5 chapters every Friday. I look forward to your thoughts! Synopsis: In a world where compassion has become a liability, Dr. Noonie Reyes studies what remains of human connection from the sterile safety of her laboratory. In our near future of environmental chaos and societal collapse, the System-an oligarchy ruling through surveillance, manipulation, and the illusion of choice-has perfected humanity's slow emotional starvation amid the ruins of civilization. Beyond the walls lies the Waste: scorched landscapes, desperate survivors, and a truth the System cannot contain. When a mysterious contagion escapes from the lab, Noonie becomes patient zero for something unprecedented-the return of empathy. As the infection spreads, transforming a corporate politician in a public display that shocks the nation, the System's architects realize their control is threatened by something they never anticipated: feeling itself. While authorities scramble to quarantine compassion, Noonie's awakening draws her into an underground movement fighting for humanity's emotional resurrection. With each new connection, she uncovers the true price of isolation and the revolutionary power of remembering how to care. In this haunting debut that echoes Orwell and Atwood, one woman's contamination becomes an entire society's salvation, asking: What remains human in us when we've been engineered to feel nothing at all?
