“He wasn’t dying—he was being harvested. Flayed alive by nerves that refused silence, each breath shredded like lungs packed with razors. A blink drew blood. A thought detonated fire. His studio became a mausoleum, and he, its invalid—crucified, disowned by his own biology. He had begged for the compound that once shackled the torment—denied. They called it withdrawal; he knew it as state-sanctioned mutilation. His fingers clawed through endless typos, desperate to name the unnamable. Even his phone collapsed mid-sentence, unable to carry one more fragment of his possession. He wasn’t sick. He was erased. Invalidated. A failed experiment rotting in plain view, too grotesque for rescue. And still he burned.” Invisible IllnessInvalidationBenzo WithdrawalLiving DeathChronic TortureHuman ErasureMedical AbandonmentNeurological DecayPain Beyond LanguagePsychiatric Mutilation Book:Sex, Drugs, and Schizophrenia Source: Sex, Drugs, and Schizophrenia
