Blue Demon

<p>Blue Demon: A Memoir of Addiction Autism and Survival tears the skin off the polite narratives of mental illness and redemption. This is the story of Davey Blanch a boy born into static and fire-autistic unseen and burning from the inside out. What begins as confusion and alienation spirals into full-blown psychosis violence addiction and the kind of madness that chews through flesh and memory alike.</p><p>There are no clean arcs here. No soft landings. Just hospitals that smell like bleach and blood drugs that never numb quite enough and a world that punishes difference with silence or a locked door. Davey doesn't find himself-he fights for scraps of identity in the wreckage clawing through the fog of Roxycontin mania and broken time.</p><p>Told in sharp splintered prose that drips with pain and defiance Blue Demon is a howl from the gutter a memoir that doesn't care if you're comfortable-it just wants you to know what it really feels like to lose your mind and live through it.</p>
