Johnny Be Good

Johnny Be Good the true-life story of a small time celebrity whose life went horribly wrong due to drink and drugs. Actor, Johnny Kinch, tells his story in a bare-all book about how he became an alcoholic, was dealing drugs, and consumed vast amounts of cocaine before his dramatic encounter with the supernatural turned his life around. Oscar Wilde once, said, we are all in the gutter but some of us are staring at the stars that summed me up! I sat up and caught a glimpse of what I thought was blood; it was running down his hands and collecting in a pool on the floor. He d cut his wrists with a piece of broken glass but not in the usual way from side to side, he'd torn open the veins down his arms exposing them length ways. I was taking about two and a half grams of coke a day for about two thirds of the week and the rest of the time was spent recovering. At the time I was getting serious liver pains and would pass blood in my urine. This was caused by the ridiculous amounts ofalcohol I'd consume when out of it on coke. I would go out and drink until I could drink no more and to enable me to see the night through, I would do line after line of coke, which would instantly sober me up and give me the ability to drink doubles and trebles without even being affected. Taking coke was so addictive. I would salivate at the mere thought of having a line. When that white powder hit the back of my nose and slid down my throat, instantly numbing it, it delivered the best rush I could ever wish to experience. It was 100% pure unadulterated ecstasy. But one line was never enough for me and I had fallen under its spell. I would take so much that my whole body would literally be shaking and I would have to stuff bog roll up my nose to stem the flow of the constant nosebleeds. My body was totally f****d. My kidneys would be aching and my p**s would be so dark it looked like treacle. I was in a terrible state and became so paranoid about dying that I'd go to sleep with my hand on my chest so I could feel my heart beating...
