The title of my book is “GO ASK ALICE”, anonymous. is a diary of a 15 year old girl and how she had to fight drugs. It is a true story. In general it’s about a 15 year old girl who lives a normal life with a good family and a good up-bringing. She has a sister named Alex and a brother named Tim, and two parents. Her father is a professor at the Chicago University. She likes boys and wearing nice clothes and just basically being your average everyday girl. Then she meets this girl named Jan who looks like a nice girl and Alice is so excited to be accepted.
Then at one of the parties she gets handed a glass of LSD and Coke and she first thinks it’s the most amazing thing in the world. That’s where things went downhill. She started getting in with the wrong crowd and started going out with a guy who had her dealing drugs to even elementary kids(!).
Then one night she finds him making out with a guy so she of course assumes he’s gay and has been using her just to sell drugs for him. Her and her friend is fed up with the drug life and decide to run away to Salt Lake City. They decide that they know no one there so they won’t be tempted with drugs. They stay there for a couple days before going to San Fransisco. They got a dingy little apartment and after a week they both got a job.
Then as it turns out her employer invited them over for a little get-together. And guess what? There was drugs there and like she says once you try drugs you can never stop and they both just sat down and cried as they smoked on a joint. Then the next night the employer gives them heroine and takes speed herself and rapes them both. They cripple their way home and quit their jobs and they go open up their own little store and sell funky jewelry and clothes. After a couple of months they both get homesick and call home. Their parents are crying and are so glad to see them.
The Essay on Drug Addict Life Friends Care
DRUG ADDICT Life is tough and some of us need something just a little more. In high school all you want to do is fit in but how can you when you are an outsider. This world of drug use you did not even know about so no wonder you didn't fit it. Once introduced everybody wants to get messed up with you cause you are really a cool person. You start making good friends and hanging out with them ...
She is very happy and promises herself she will never go near drugs again. A couple months later her friend calls her and is very upset and tells her to come over immediately. When she comes over her friend is on drugs again and she goes back on drugs and they get all disoriented and when she finally wakes up she is in Denver. When she finally gets back she tries to stick with the straight kids. But the “grass gang” keeps on threatening her. Finally when she is baby-sitting someone put LSD on her peanuts and she went crazy and ended up in a mental hospital cause she had torn her finger nails off scratching off the worms on herself. When she finally gets home she is going good, hates drugs and plans on doing social work.
She decides not to have a diary and then in the epilogue it tells how three weeks later she died of a over dose. It is unknown if it was accidental or premeditated. It related to spiritual in many ways. She felt really close to god when she was stuck in Denver and had to go to a church for help and found refuge with a priest. Also her poor parents prayed to god regularly hoping their daughter was O.K. Emotionally it affected her and all of her family wondering if their daughter was alive or dead.
Also she did a lot of growing up and had to overcome drugs in her epic struggle. Also her parents were tormented regularly about the thought of her daughter. Physically she is practically abused by the drugs and she is suffering from lack of vitamins and eating. Also all the stress on her parents can’t be healthy. Her siblings were probably upset and their body took a beating. Also social because of her first getting with drugs her social life was either non-existent or was with druggies. And mentally she probably killed billions of irreplaceable brain cells and probably affected her families mental abilities too because they would be clogged with worrying. I learned a lot how drugs can ruin your life and even kill you.

I learned also what happens and how it makes you go crazy and even if you just try it they can get you addicted for life. For my personal views I think it was a tragedy because she was just rehabilitating and was recovering and then something happened. It’s just too bad a perfectly good life had to be ruined like that and in the process destroy the lives of her parents and family when she had it going so well. And in conclusion that is my verdict of this book and I highly recommend it to all people(probably not under the age of ten though) but is a very good book and I give it a 9.3 on my
