HALT: The American Rehab Experience, set amongst multiple American rehabs, is an undeniably wild ride through the psyche of addicts and alcoholics across the inevitable jails, institutions, and death that become their lives. Graham Reid-Van Every takes us through what is occurring from a patient's perspective, whether it be something spoken in a smoking area, or being preached by a therapist in a class on the dangers of drug and alcohol use. HALT shows the stark, specific, environment and interactions that are occurring in what is becoming an exponentially larger industry by the day.

This body of work that defines multiple first-hand accounts within America's rehab system depicts the raw, gritty reality of "recovery" classes, conversation, and day-to-day life that is occurring in treatment centers across America. HALT gives the reader a fly on the wall's experience of what the general culture of rehab in America is like and opens a greater conversation regarding what can be done to potentially improve a sector of healthcare that contains one of the lowest percentile success rates within the entirety of the American healthcare system.

From a privileged life of hedonism to the depths of America’s narcotic underbelly, from Gstaad, to the gutter… Graham Reid-Van Every was born in Miami, Florida on February 1996 where he attended Gulliver Preparatory then subsequently Emerson College and University of Miami. Van Every’s affinity towards writing has been prevalent from a young age, becoming a member of The Columbia National Scholastic Press Association at the age of 15 and a published journalism writer by The Berkeley Beacon at 16. Between Miami, New York City, and Madrid for the better half of his adult life, he spent the latter half coming down from, and out of, alcohol and opiate addiction across six different treatment facilities, in four different states. Van Every claims that the only period of time that he was not “completely loaded” between 2015 and 2023 was when he was forcibly living on a sailboat traveling across The Gulf of Mexico and The Mississippi River. Van Every currently resides in Palm Beach, Florida.
