Episode 2×15, “Revelations,” Reid is held hostage and drugged by Tobias as the rest of the team races to find him. Footage of Reid being tortured is placed on the Internet. He manages to send Hotch a coded message at gunpoint. During Dilaudid-induced unconsciousness, Reid sees scenes from his childhood and this causes him to confess to Tobias that he had sent his schizophrenic mother away. We learn that his mother’s mental illness got worse after his father left. Tobias drags Reid out and forces him to dig his own grave. Reid gets a hold of Tobias’ gun and shoots him. Reid takes some Dilaudid off of Tobias’ dead body.

Episode 2×16, “Fear and Loathing,” Reid is trying to cope with the memory of what happened in Georgia while investigating a racially charged string of murders. Reid goes into a bathroom with the Dilaudid but seemingly does not take it. Tells Morgan about how he know understands what victims feel before they are killed.

Episode 2×17, “Distress,” Still dealing with the trauma of Georgia, Reid focuses his anger on Prentiss, repeatedly snapping at her throughout their search for an UnSub suffering from severe Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. Reid himself continues to display some possible symptoms of PTSD, most notably his irritable reaction to the loud noise of the city-wide construction around them. In the episode you see Reid scratching his face a lot. Itching is a common side affect of Dilaudid. So the episode shows that Reid is addicted and is on it in this episode.

Episode 2×18, “Jones,” The team travels to New Orleans, where Reid’s friend, and rival from BAU training, Ethan lives. Reid continues to snap at Prentiss, even when she makes a little joke complimenting him. While in the city, Reid does go to see Ethan and they go to a bar. Ethan notices Reid is unhappy and can tell he is having a drug problem. Ethan tells Reid that his team members notice, even though Reid thinks they don’t.” He points at the wine glass in Reid’s hand and tells him “it might help you forget…it won’t make it go away” During that time, Prentiss called Reid 4 times and he ignored it, resulting in him missing a plane to interview a suspect. Prentiss gives him a hard time about it and later admits to Gideon that there’s something going on with Reid and Gideon knows. At the end, Reid is at the bar watching Ethan play piano and Gideon finds him. Reid admits he’s “struggling” and is questioning if he is strong enough and Gideon assures him that anyone would be after being abducted and drugged. Reid promises to “never miss another plane again.”

Episode 2×19, “Ashes and Dust,” During a briefing, Reid likens the arsonist to a drug addict, saying that “it would be almost impossible for him to quit without help.” The comment draws stares from Morgan, Gideon, and Hotch, making Reid uncomfortable. It is hinted that Reid may be getting his addiction under control. He burns himself on the espresso maker and drops things. The lack of coordination suggests he’s been without drugs after possible withdrawal in “Distress”. He is very cheerful and seems better. He was excited that the station had an espresso maker and when JJ joked with him he excepted it without lashing out
