This for my 'Dr. Spencer Reid' claim at the Solitaire3 community at LiveJournal.

Theme/Prompt: No.2. Nadir.
"The lowest point."

/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

He knew what he was doing was wrong. Something under normal circumstances that he would not even consider. But that was not a normal circumstance and all he wanted to do was forget about what had happened.

It was well over a few months since he had been rescued but it still haunted him. He tried to not use the potent stuff more then once, but then the memory would play itself out in his dream and turn it into a nightmare.

He hid it from the others as best he could. After all, what would they think? Odds were they would want him off the team, since who wanted a junkie working FBI cases? And for that much he would not blame them.

The other day he had picked up a pamphlet for anti-drug meetings for officers. The next meeting was tomorrow, and he had since resolved to check it out at least. Because he knew that he could not keep living this way forever.

The extra coffee for sometimes sleepless nights, the jittery-ness, the unintentional snapping at his friends. Besides, they would probably catch on soon and confront him about it. And that would mean revisiting the nightmare.

He shuddered a little at the simple thought of the memory. Tomorrow, he thought, he would go to the meeting and attempt to 'get clean'. But for tonight, he wanted to forget, at least last more time.

Authors Note:
Who hasn't done something with Reid involving his drug problem?

This is also my first completed Criminal Minds piece. And if you cannot tell, Reid is my favorite.

Any concrit is appreciated as I would like to write more CM fics.
