Reading the book certainly made me nervous about taking Halcion. I was just taking a tiny bit (1/2 -1 tab), but nothing terrible happened. His description of friends coming to visit and how agonising it was for him have stayed with me. Also his depression, like my mother's, was pretty unresponsive to any treatments and followed its own mysterious path, maybe (just speculating) only improving when some internal limit had been reached. Pain? Exhaustion? Ability to remember?
