a day in the life of a junkie

This is the first time I have come across that mammoth of a block of text on this site and read the whole thing, Fucking great man, (the writing I mean) you have a talent, you really should look into professional writing you could have a future in it, seriously!

Man I can relate to that story on too many levels. It was written very well and it kept me sucked in for awhile. Fucking heroin. I love/hate that shit.
 
Good writing. Sorry about the addiction...........but congrats on getting clean:)

thank you for the well wishes and all the kind comments. I have been clean for about 2 years now and i was just feeling nostalgic one day and wanted to write this, may write some more if i have time another day and if people would like it. Hope everyone is doing well!

If you cleaned up some of your punctuation, grammar and syntax, you could definitely get this published in a small literary journal somewhere. You would have to submit it as "flash fiction" and obviously make a few edits here and there, but otherwise it's perfect. I know several places that would really dig this. PM me if you are interested.
 
bravo! I enjoy writing and drugs so it was very nice to read this.

I've gotten a bit nostalgic, as this was me as well years ago (to the point where I have copped in Chicago a couple times, although not from around there). unlike most cities, there is a certain hostility in there that is just seems to remind you that you could be going to jail tonight.
 
loved it. i could picture all of it in my head. you are a writer, you have some talent there.
 
reading that made me fucking cry. i dont really know why. probably cuz im a junkie myself and i reminds me of myself...
 
Great stuff. One of the aspects I liked was how you captured the junkie/family relationship.
 
^Its more like..stick to what you dont want to do, and dont do it. Once you pop you just cant stop

yep thats the way to roll, ive done weed and pills thats it and i will never take another step up the ladder.

i really liked this read, i like to have a good incentive towards heroin as society makes it look like a proper bad thing, people do it and thats why i like bluelight. obviously i cant relate but i really enjoyed the read.
