Heroin Zopiclone bandit VS The NHS V1.0 "I am Smackacus!"

[Zopiclone bandit]

Yes, it is possible for heroin addicts in the UK to be prescribed morphine (or similar strong opioids) on the NHS, although it is not the standard treatment approach. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
Here is the breakdown of how this works:

• Standard Treatment (Opioid Substitution Treatment - OST): The primary method for treating heroin addiction in the UK is providing legal substitutes, usually [methadone] or [buprenorphine], which help manage withdrawal symptoms.
• Alternative Prescriptions: While less common than methadone, some users might be prescribed injectable heroin (diamorphine) or other strong opioids under strict supervision by specialists, particularly if standard treatments have not worked.
• The "British System": Historically, the UK allows doctors to prescribe opioids for addictions that have not responded to treatment, allowing for a gradual reduction in use or, in some cases, maintenance.
• Supervision: Because morphine is a highly controlled drug, any prescription for an addict would be tightly regulated and monitored by a local drug treatment service or a specialist doctor, rather than a regular GP.

In short, addiction treatment exists to stop illegal heroin use, and while substituting it with another strong opioid like morphine is legal, it is always done under professional medical care.

I have decided after my Methadone Fuck about & the HORRIFIC allergic reaction to Espranor I am taking on my local NHS & drug Service & I am going all out to get a Legal Script of what I need. I learned over the wk/end Camden in London has at the least 100 legal addicts who have a daily amount of NHS Grade, Pure Diamorphine, it comes in little glass vials you break the top off, draw up in a 1ml & then shoot & this is NHS backed.

As @Señor Moreno said a few weeks ago You are a lifer" & tbh I know I am, without Heroin I cannot function & Methadone is no magic cure, if anything methadone is a type of poison & I REFUSE to take that stuff, it makes the effects in withdrawl so much worse on my body & "Mental Health"

I have dealt with crushing Depression all my life, I am not being "Woke" here but I have sat on the edge of the window in my 13th floor Council flat several times with a note waiting for whoever kicked in the door after they have picked up what is left of me, how I am still here is beyond me & P.A.W.S. EVERY TIME causes me such horror I cannot express it in words, you can read Marcus Aurelius - Meditations all day & night, try to be Stoic as much as you want but for me it doesn't work.

I have tried both OST ( see above) or here (Standard Treatment (Opioid Substitution Treatment - OST): The primary method for treating heroin addiction in the UK is providing legal substitutes, usually [methadone] or [buprenorphine], which help manage withdrawal symptoms.) & also I KNOW THIS IS FACT "Alternative Prescriptions: While less common than methadone, some users might be prescribed injectable heroin (diamorphine) or other strong opioids under strict supervision by specialists, particularly if standard treatments have not worked." so I am getting ready to fight my local Health Board to get what I need.

I will be updating this thread as & when, I hope maybe just one other person who is like me may see it & REFUSE to accept The State giving them Methadone which was made by actual Nazi Members FFS & DEMAND that their Rights are RESPECTED & given what they are ALLOWED TO TAKE BY LAW!!!!!!

Hundreds of people addicted to heroin in the UK are benefitting from a free legal supply of the drug, new figures show.

The Independent can reveal that 280 people received a prescription for diamorphine – medical-grade heroin – in 2017-18, via a freedom of information request to Public Health England (PHE) by Release, a drugs charity offering legal advice and support.

Under PHE guidelines, diamorphine is usually offered as a last resort after other forms of treatment, such as methadone and buprenorphine, have proven unsuccessful.

“I’ve seen firsthand how diamorphine could help people recover to the point where they were able to work, experience liberation from a cycle of repeated criminal justice involvement, be present for their families, and have hope where previously there was none,” said Dr Prun Bijral, medical director at the UK’s largest third sector drug treatment provider, Change Grow Live.

Email fired off to The BCHFT (Black Country Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust.)

Hello, I am asking to the local board & if this isn't the right place please forward my email to the correct section that I am looked at for an alternative prescription to treat my addiction. I have just lost my Methadone script which was 50mg daily & have lost it which has caused my far worse issues with PAWS (Post Acute Withdrawl Syndrome) & such long, extended sickness I've had to change my DWP / JSA Benefit. I have also tried Espranor which it turns out I am allergic to & the doctor removed me from it due to the severe reaction I had to it.

I have looked online over the last week & I know when Opioid Substitution Treatment hasn't worked for a small few people other ways are used, I have read online & I quote directly "280 people received a prescription for diamorphine – medical-grade heroin – in 2017-18, via a freedom of information request to Public Health England (PHE) by Release, a drugs charity offering legal advice and support." & I am making a request to the NHS hEalth Board for me to be looked at for this.

Please email me in regard to this issue, I give FULL permission to anyone to read my medical notes & anything else The NHS may need to check what I am saying is true. I am NOT looking for some kind of freebie off The NHS, I have had many attempts to get off this stuff & failed, my money I give to buy ILLEGAL ITEMS only goes back to fund Huge OCG (Organised Criminal Gangs) & also with the rise of Fentanyl & Xylazine to be denied what by The UK LAw says I am 100% allowed is insanity.

Please feel free to get in touch, I am willing to do whatever is needed for my Legal Right to a correct Treatment to be put into action.

In an hour and a half of interviewing Sarah*, I would never have suspected she had taken heroin that morning. Her West London basement flat contains none of the chaos and disorder you might associate with a daily user. The living room is clean. The only item lying on the floor is a food bowl for her cat that comes in and out as we speak. The shelves are full of books with titles such as Prescription Drugs: Alternative Uses, Alternative Cures alongside River Cafe cook books and novels.

Each morning, Sarah, 47, intramuscularly injects a dose of heroin just after she gets up. She injects again in the afternoon - around 5pm if she has been out working or volunteering - and then injects again at bed time. All told, she takes 300mg of the drug a day. All of Sarah’s drug taking paraphernalia is clean and neat.
Tomorrow, she will need more heroin. She will hit the streets, not in search of a dealer, but a chemist. She goes to a specialised clinic for addiction, speaks to her key worker about how things are going and receives her prescription. This gives her two weeks’ worth of freeze dried ampoules of diamorphine - the medical term for heroin - clean syringes, sterile water and alcohol swabs, for free, from her local pharmacy.

Heroin prescription has been a part of Britain’s approach to drugs since the 1920s, but the public is largely ignorant of its existence. The policy was so rare internationally it came to be dubbed “The British System”. The Home Office licenses doctors to prescribe diamorphine to those who do not respond to alternatives like methadone or morphine. Possession of diamorphine, a Class A Drug, would ordinarily mean a prison sentence of up to seven years.
Sarah has been on her prescription for 14 years. She became addicted to heroin after leaving home in her native Australia aged 15. This take-home prescription follows repeated failures of what she calls “the methadone merry-go-round”, when she took the substitute given to addicts that failed to suppress her urge. She is determined to come off her prescription but fears, if she relapses, she would not get it back.

After years on methadone, another doctor asked her what she felt she needed. “Heroin script, actually,” she said, not aware such a thing was actually possible here. But the doctor explained it was. Sarah initially went to a clinic where she had to go every day, take her diamorphine ampoules to inject at home and then return the empty ones the next day, without which she would not receive her next dose.
She calls the environment “terrible”. The doses were too small and patients would top up with other drugs but then lie about it for fear of having the prescription withdrawn as punishment. The constant attendance requirements made it hard to escape the circles that kept her in heroin’s orbit. She once saw a man in the waiting room whose skin had turned yellow. He told her he had developed an abscess on his rear and lowered his trousers to show a huge patch of black skin. He kept it from the clinic for fear of losing his methadone prescription. He didn’t even go to the adjacent hospital.

Sarah left the clinic and returned to a methadone prescription. She was only able to move to a take-home diamorphine prescription when a friend came off theirs and Sarah took the place. “When I walked in that door to plead for that prescription, I was taking everything, I was even drinking, which I never did,” she says. But once she had this prescription this “just all fell away... I think it was important to feel trusted by the doctor, to be able to get out of my living situation... It was just full of daily drug activity.” After a few months, the doctor eventually agreed to let her take the diamorphine out of London, to stay with her mum in Essex for six months.
Together they would make trips back to London to gradually clean out the flat of gear she had used to take heroin. Contacts connected to drugs stopped ringing. Sarah eventually returned to London. “The difference was like night and day,” she tells me of the change. “Diamorphine, it just knocked on the head all that scoring on top.”

I swear to God the local NHS board has no idea who they are trying to mug off & take as a Clown, I am really starting to LEARN my LEGAL RIGHTS & I am willing to go all out in a War of Bureaucracy to smash this Kafkaesque nightmare.

I have felt the full wrath of The Law come down on my head when I have broken the rules set out for us all to follow but The Law is a sword that cuts both ways if you follow my logic here? I have got a special notepad where I will be taking note of all the Doctors who break the rules & tell me lies & I will be going after their job no matter what the outcome for me is.

If I have learned anything in Life it's this, when you are under a system of "Law and Order" you have to keep your nose clean, if I am caught with 7 grams of Heroin I am going to Jail which isn't fair in my view but I have broken The Law, when these are the rules of Combat & you pick to go into a War you have to be ready to use "The system" against itself.

I will go to Jail for decades if I walked into a Pharmacy & pulled out a Gun & robbed them as it's illegal which is fair enough, in this War I am getting ready for "The pen is mightier than the sword"

I will take this all the way to The Supreme Court of the United Kingdom if needed & have a KC in my corner who will understand & all those Doctors & NHS people who played me like a fool will soon have no job

good luck, i heard its especially hard to get approved in the UK and it can take years sometimes, just gotta stay on it

Reasons for wanting to provide IOT may include:

• achieving improved outcomes for people with long term opioid use and complex problems
• reducing the harm associated with injecting drug use for people who are in treatment but continue to inject illicit opioids
  engaging populations with major health needs that are not currently in standard oral OST and are unwilling to enter or return to such treatment.
  ​
• A small number of patients already receive IOT on an unsupervised basis (under what is known as the ‘British system’ of opioid treatment, started in the early 1900s). Many of these patients have long-term chronic health problems and have been on this treatment for a long time. Clinical guidance is that the quality of care for these patients should be reviewed regularly and, where there is clear evidence of benefit, treatment should continue and be improved.
  
  Stable patients on this long-term treatment are very different to the often high-risk, heavy drug-using and complex patients who might respond positively to supervised IOT.
  
  There may be some challenges for service providers in continuing to provide for the small number of ‘British system’ patients while developing supervised-only IOT for new patients. These challenges need to be managed to protect the benefits to the ‘British system’ patients.

good luck

Thanks for the best wishes.

Where did you hear this from?
Have you tried yourself to get Legal Diamorphine?
How much experience had the person / people who told you it's hard have? Had they taken on the NHS to get a Legal script?

Trust me I will stay with it, I am like a Dog with a bone when I know I am right, I will NEVER back down from anyone when I know The Law & actual NHS Website says something & I am 100% correct in what I am saying.

I have been on Heroin since 2001, I cannot function without Opiates, I have used several other methods to keep myself off Smack & each failed. If I had a legal script I am able to act like 99.9% of the population. Why should I take Tax Payer money in the form of JSA / Benefits due to needing a drug & sit on my arse all day when I could be out working & paying Tax into the system etc. I have to go score on the street, it stops me from being able to work, if I had proper access to what I need this wouldn't be the case.

To me it's simply INSANITY to say I'm not allowed medicine which I need, I will end up costing The NHS way more in terms of doctors time, medicine to treat depression so bad you want to die etc. The cost to keep someone in a secure Mental Health Unit due to them trying to end their life but failed must be at the least £1,000 & I swear when I get into P.A.W.S. my mind thinks of nothing but suicide & I go into a depression that a doctor said was known as "Clinical depression" / " major depressive disorder"

Clinical depression, or major depressive disorder, is a serious mental health condition characterized by persistent, intense sadness or loss of interest in activities for at least two weeks, affecting daily functioning. Unlike temporary sadness, it is a real illness—not a weakness—causing physical, cognitive, and emotional symptoms requiring professional treatment.

My good mate when he got off Smack had P.A.W.S. for 2 years with NOT a days break from it, he tried to end his life but failed, he sat in a single room for 2 years & he said it was an issue to even get out of bed to wash, people have no idea what Clinical depression caused by P.A.W.S. is like till they have sampled it.

Take homes though that gives at least some freedom. One day. Quite discriminating toward a medical client on a prescription normally they go to great ex tense to make sure demented elderly go to Spain and wheel chair bound can swim with Dolphins

System here has no take homes so worse in that regard. The old junkys are of old age now. Seems to be easier to get in now. A lady with grand kids, was on it but house bound. Hoping for take homes. On it since the start.

Other one was rejected from it, a lungpatient didn t wanna vape/ chase it Foil is provided along fresh needles Not willing to inject snorting . is not a allowed ROA here. It does work btw as HR approach Heroin use declined and IV-ing almost disappeared. Very little new young users. Till ~2010 orso. never used myself.

Success with the quest and finding the holes in those protocols. Sound s a bit like my quest for dextro-Amphetamine for ADHD here. Niche drug

I'll reply as I read down.

Don't ask for them to forward your email, they won't. Ask instead of who if not them, you do need to speak to. It passes the burden and is much more likely to elicit a response to your ask/question.

As for substitution onto diamorphine, those selected would have likely been users who had at a minimum of a decade on each alternative and can show a history of it not working. I don't know what your usage has been like nor have I asked, but I would imagine there's a list as long as both our arms and a checklist to match.

It's outside my remit really, but wish I could help. I can help point what key words to throw into any communication if and when you get a reply. Expect to get a lot of pushback and as already stated, it can take months if not years before you might end up with a resolution you're happy with.

With all that said, good luck and godspeed.

Good luck Zop!!

I know a couple of people who are prescribed morphine for pain - and they are kind enough to slip me some. I am floating as I write.

Recently discovered if you take morphine on an empty stomach you gets awful gutsache and headaches. However, if you take it with food its a whole new ballgame.

this UK based lady i sometimes watch on youtube seems to have a bit of knowledge on the topic, also a long time Heroin-Methadone addict (shes 40 now) so similar time frame to you, i dont know if she mentioned it in this video or in which (you can just go through her playlists on the topic) where she talks about how long it took her to be switched to oral morphine even after all veins started being ruined and health took a nose dive with the methadone sickness. Thats most i know about UK heroin, but she does conradtict stuff you say on occasion (she cant get real H, while i've seen you you previously discuss that real Afghan H still exists, might just be a location thing idk, its weird)
but thats about what i know

Trust me I will stay with it, I am like a Dog with a bone when I know I am right, I will NEVER back down from anyone when I know The Law & actual NHS Website says something & I am 100% correct in what I am saying.

dont let em get you down boss

I've still got a strip of those "oxycodones" that wiped out half of Glasgows heroin users. I think they were a fiver for a 35mg pill. Obviously realised they were nitazines at that price so I just scraped a few specks of powder under my thumbnail and licked it - really unpleasant feeling with strange smeared colours behind your eyelids for about 7 hours. Then you vomit for 6 hours.

Apparantly nitazines are old news now anyway - newest thing is Orphines - which are ten times stronger than nitazenes. Is there any real heroin in the UK now?

I mean I know criminals don't care but selling orphines? Why not just sell crushed up aspirin or something that's not gonna kill you?

I mean I know criminals don't care but selling orphines? Why not just sell crushed up aspirin or something that's not gonna kill you?

if it were just profit then you're right, but they want repeat business and new customers.

bigger issue is cross contamination and hot spots from a supply perspective.

@Zopiclone bandit best of luck, you've got your work cut out for yourself, the UK law and way we tackle addiction is bloody backward, most stupid approach & policies that you could ever make up!

 

[Ismene2]

Any heroin user injecting nitazines is in for an unpleasant time.
