I was far from the most responsible guide. In December of that year, she was with me for most of the five straight days I spent holed up at the Ramada on Lexington Avenue in New York, smoking PCP.  Candy and I were having such a fucked-up trip that on the fifth day we actually threw the rest of the PCP out the hotel window. For all the bad experiences I’ve had on ketamine, I never once threw any away.

The couple fell into quite destructive patterns together because of their addictive tendencies.

As I sat in that cell, missing Candy and thinking about how much I loved her, I realized how shitty it was to let coke rule my life the way I did. I knew it would make Candy incredibly happy if I stopped doing it, so when she and I had a moment alone, I told her that I was quitting coke.

I believed she started to see me as an embarrassment, as someone holding her back. I got the sense she felt she could do better than me. There’s a distinct possibility I was just paranoid and that those ideas were as much a projection of my feeling like I wasn’t good enough for Candy as they were anything else, but even if it was just my perception, it quickly poisoned the waters between us.
