Is a heroin dependency any worse than an oxy dependency? I don't think so, shit seems exactly them same to as long as your not iv'ing it. That changes the game I'm sure but as far as just sniffing the shit it seems just like oxy to me, the same exact buzz. Just a bunch of stigma attached to heroin I guess. My Oxys that I have a legit script for, they stopped working for my pain. My dr wasn't trying to up my dosage even after being on the the same 15mg every 8hr( lmao) for 6-7yrs. This is just how it goes for us pain patients, were treated like drug addled losers that lie and steal and are always looking to get over on the system so moving to dope is the natural progression of things for a lot of us people who are suffering. I'm not saying run out a score a bun and try the shit, I'm just saying in some cases it can be helpful in alleviating suffering. I'm not out there ripping and running, my life is exactly the same as it was when I was on oxy except now I get round the clock pain control and in not going fucking broke every month scoring outrageously priced blues to get by. I've been reading this thread for awhile now and all I hear is h is the end of your life as u know it, I'm just not sure that's true in all cases. Everything has it's purpose in this world. And I'm not trying to act like an uppity drug addict that's a better dope fiend than everyone else , I'm just saying my experience with dope. I'm the same fiend I was on oxy now that I'm on h. It should be known though that once u make that switch u can't go back to oxy , the dope really blasts your tolerance outta the water so oxy definitley won't work so don't waste ur pills. If there's no reason for you to be on opiates/opiods you shouldn't fuck with them for sure. It's not gonna improve your life unless you enjoy spending mad dough with nothing but a forgotten high to show for your money. If you need pain control and you have no quality of life then I could certainly understand your need for h if no drs will believe u and your dying inside everyday. Who would tell somebody to suffer if there's an answer? Someone that's never had intractable pain I guess...
Look I know I'm gonna get ripped to shreds for this post but I don't give a fuck. Let's be honest here and stop the scaremongering. Let's state facts, heroin can ruin your life, heroin has a huge stigma, it will destroy you if you let it, same with oxy, morphine, hydrocodone, fuckin codeine for that matter, plenty of posts on here from across the pond about people losing everything because of a codeine dependency. I grew up a drug dealer, son of addicts, I've seen what addiction can do to some people, but I've also seen people who used in moderation and have sustained their usage for well over 20yrs now and are no worse for wear. They own houses, raise successful children, own cars, pay the bills, and have plenty of cash in the bank. It's not the drug it's the addict.
Let the ripping begin, I'm done.
