Title: Work of fiction
Product review: For those who might still believe that this is a real diary, or for those who are still merely uncertain, a quick trip to the copyright page using Amazon's "Search Inside" feature will quickly and easily resolve the matter:"This book is a work of fiction. Any references to historical events, real people, or real locales are used fictitiously. Other names, characters, places, and incidents are the product of the author's imagination, and any resemblance to actual events or locales or persons, living or dead, is entirely coincidental."You can look it up yourself right now in a matter of seconds to confirm it. (And it's telling that this notice appears in later editions of the book, but not earlier ones.)Considering that there are more than enough true stories about people ruining their lives with drugs -- attending an NA meeting will readily confirm that -- it's sad that this badly-written hoax continues to receive the attention that it does.
