Withdrawl Stories

Allen Quincey(17) is dealing with his long-time addiction to mainly but not exclusively Heroin and perscription Xanax. He struggles to find the correct way to help himself without finding death in the process. Allen searches for his 'lost self' amid battling his past, future and present lifestyle, choices, and the people surrounding him in his enduring quest to be sober.

Some silences are meant to protect you. Others are meant to wake you up. WITHDRAWAL follows Kael Duma - a man living in a future where every human mind is connected to a system known as the Hum. The world calls it safety. Connection. Peace. Kael calls it wrong. For twenty-nine years, he has lived with the feeling that the Hum never fit him the way it fit everyone else. Then, one night, he steps into a hidden room beneath the city... and experiences true silence for the first time in his life. He should have died. Instead, he survives something impossible: Withdrawal. What follows is a journey through underground resistance networks, forgotten truths, vanished survivors, and a mystery buried beneath humanity itself. As Kael uncovers what the Grid has really been taking from people, he begins to understand that he was never ordinary - and that his entire life may have been preparing him for something far bigger than rebellion. A haunting blend of dystopian sci-fi, psychological mystery, and philosophical fiction, WITHDRAWAL explores identity, freedom, consciousness, and what remains when the noise finally disappears. 📖 Genre: Dystopian Sci-Fi / Psychological Thriller / Philosophical Fiction 📄 Format: PDF 📚 15 Chapters | Complete Story The Hum connected humanity. But something beneath the world has been waiting for it to end. 👁️

UPDATE: 1/14/24 - Per reader request, I will turn this from a short story into a novella. It will be taken down soon and re-published! Despite years passing since Hasan moved his children from Québec to Amman, twenty-four-year-old Yazid still struggles to see passed his father's decision to leave his mother. As the firstborn, he attempts to take on more responsibility for his sisters, but one of them perpetually meets him headstrong. If there are three words Hasan would use to describe his son, they would be reckless, disagreeable, and unpredictable. For this reason, he entrusts his eldest daughter Aseel to care for the family, investing in her more than investing in Yazid. With his mother thousands of miles away, and his father unapproachable, the young man finds solace in injecting himself with needles of "amnesia" as he puts it, unaware that, with every memory he washes away, he grows in sin. On one lonely night, Yazid comes in contact with slithering dancers, swaying from side to side, whispering in his ear that there is only one true way to cleanse himself of his sins. Genre: General Fiction Themes: Suicide, substance abuse, anxiety
