My 25 yr old son got this book from the library shortly before he overdosed and died 8n March of this year. He told me he was doing an experiment on himself and trying some new things. I’m so sad that he didn’t complete it but he did make me aware of the book which I’m going to take advantage of and in his honor make it work for me. Thank you Kelly (my son’s name).
