This isn't a redemption story. It's a survival story. And some days, even that feels like a stretch. Clear Fire is Kyle Robicheaux's gut-punch of a memoir-written from inside the chaos of autism, addiction, trauma, and the long road back from the edge. Diagnosed late, misunderstood early, he grew up drowning in sensory overload, anger, and silence. Then came the pills, the needles, the hospital beds, the psych wards.
Every chapter bleeds. Every sentence burns. Told in raw fragments and hard truths, this book doesn't flinch. It's not polished. It's not hopeful for the sake of being hopeful. But it's real. Brutally, painfully real. It's about the cost of feeling too much, too fast, and too often-and the grit it takes to keep living anyway. Clear Fire is for anyone who's been told they're too much or not enough. For the addicts, the neurodivergent, the survivors.
For the ones still here, somehow. If you're looking for a sanitized, self-help memoir, look elsewhere. If you're ready for the truth, come closer. It hurts, but it's honest.
