This is a book about the COVID lockdowns, and how they affected people with substance use disorders and mental health difficulties. The main focus of the book centers around 30 people who formed a bond while attending in-person outpatient substance use disorder treatment.

Tim Volz is the owner of No One, LLC, a private mental health clinical practice in Rochester, MN. He has been working in the helping professions for over twenty-five years as a teacher, licensed alcohol and drug counselor (LADC), and licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC). He holds multiple professional licenses. Tim won't be found on Facebook, but he will be found at the gym, at the heaviest of heavy metal concerts, on golf courses, in front of his laptop, at church, at bookstores, and at recovery meetings. He is working on his eighteenth year of sustained sobriety. He embraces imperfection, and although flawed, he has a passion for helping others that transcends his job title. He is a multiple felon and anti-hero and enjoys working with the outcasts/underdogs of society. This is his second book.
