Reccer's comments:

This story contains disturbing images and descriptions of drug and alcohol abuse.
It's an uncomfortable and gripping view of Sherlock after the pool, viewing himself, viewing John, in a deteriorating state.

Sherlock's an endlessly fascinating character to explore and read, most intensely, for me, when we're looking through his eyes. This is horribly good at doing so. I'm glad it's not canon.
