A Twice-Told Tale of Addiction: By Father, by Son – New York Times Feb 26, 2008
Nic's book, "Tweak: Growing Up on Methamphetamines," is a first-person account on his drug addiction, which began while he was still in high school (where he learned to shoot up from studying a diagram on the Internet) and lasted for more than a decade.  For much of that time he was living on the street, prostituting himself, selling drugs occasionally (though he was never very good at it) and eating food salvaged from Dumpsters; he would turn up in his parents' lives occasionally, sometimes to steal from them.
