An Ex-resident's Story

I first read this, An Ex-resident's Story, a while back.
 
I chose not to post a link on the fantods (as far as I am aware...) because it could not be verified. Discussion has now resurfaced in a number of locations around the web. You'll likely appreciate it more if you've read Infinite Jest.

Thoughts Part 2

Infinite Jest helped me to face some demons. Just as it has (and continues
to do so) for many other readers. Like numerous others, I too have sections
bookmarked to read in times of particular need.
 
David Foster Wallace, Thank you.
