there's a biography called "Smashed" that you might like, about a teenage druggie. The author is Koren Zailckas

I don't know of any, but this would be a really good resource for you. Dr. Drew (yes, of LoveLines) has information on books that he has written as well as books that he would recommend on the topics that you are referring to....good luck!
