Doherty tells me he is being treated at a walk-in clinic for users and is currently on a pharmaceutical opiate called Subutex, which "doesn't get you high" but suppresses withdrawal symptoms. Instead, they moved Doherty to another wing where he found an ally in his cellmate who "didn't like bullies, basically". "I'm really surprised she's done that," he says rather sadly, looking to his manager for confirmation and support. "Yeah, she's mine," he says, adding: "We're using the baby's blood in one of the pictures".
