Is it wrong to ask an addict to buy their drug of choice for another person?

I have basically moved to a new country to live with my companion. I don't know anyone but him and his family. My boyfriend's older brother is a heroin addict, and I enjoy the taste. :\ I know the brother takes suboxone, dislikes NA and still drinks, but I have no clue if he is using or not.
Should I attempt to work my magic on him? Or would it only lead to reuse on his part?

Advice please...
 
That is a terrible, terrible thing to do. This person it trying to stay clean, and you're trying to trigger their relapse. Don't do it. If you really need to find something, find someone who is still using to locate a source for you, don't fuck up someone else who is trying to stay clean.

It's a no-brainer really. You shouldn't have to ask us.
 
^What they said. Just the other week I had a friend just out of prison relapse because someone asked him to cop, and then he figured he'd take a cut of the goods. I can see where the idea might cross your mind, but itd be a shitty thing to actually put into practice.
 
yea I'm going to have to agree with everyone else and say this is kind of a no brainer, you shouldnt need to even ask this question.

If you have done this before, (which it sounds like you have) you should be able to figure out how to go about getting a new source. Or, if all else fails, you could quit! :D
 
Second Opinion is not a forum in which we allow discussion of drugs.

Moving to Drug Culture.
 
I'm agreeing with the others on this topic
if someone is trying to stay clean why bait them into getting high again?

think about it from his perspective
you're happy getting clean, and then all of the sudden someone asks for a source. This realization that its really THAT easy to get high again will make you just crave and crave and crave until BAM you're slammin dope again.

I think its best if you find your own sources on this one
 
justsomeguy used the exact words i was thinking, this is a pretty shitty thing to do to a recovering addict. whenever i'm quitting a substance people respect that and don't ask me if i want to use let alone ask me to score for them. fuck that, get your own drugs another way.
 
yeah man I have had this happen to me personally and I thought I would be cool with it and help the dude out...I ended up going into superfiend mode and couldnt handle myself.

if you are really that desperate/determined you can find it pretty easily, I have faith in you...just dont put someone else in a bad situation so that you can get off
 
Disrespectful. I have had friends ask me to get them something when I was recovering and what do ya know...I went right back into it, heavier than before since I was playing middleman for someone else aswell as doing my own thing. They can find drugs just like anyone else instead of subjecting someone trying to better themselves to their old ways.
 
My brother is a recovering heroin addict. Just got out of jail for his relapse. People call him a lot to find weed and subs. It really bothers me, I just don't see how you could risk someone elses health just to get your drugs. Granted it isn't that bad because these aren't his drug of choice, but its still very frustrating. I wouldn't recommend doing it at all.
 
Im a recovering heroin addict and i get daily calls from mad ppl asking me for subs or to get them bags or to get high ... how the fuck am i suppose to quit with that? these ppl know im on a program and should not be using but damn it makes it so fucking hard ... and i just dont want to quit right now i like where im at weekend warrior status
 
Should I attempt to work my magic on him?

Which magic is that? Your evil magic?

If he isn't using, he'll probably start after you beg him everyday to score for him. It's only a matter of time.
 
Ask him to give you the numbers or something

Personally I would never go through a recovering adict. let alone adict

your pretty much shoving drugs in his/her face and telling him your gonna do it al
 
FUCKED UP.

Get your heroin someplace else. I feel very strongly on this issue so sorry, haha, but seriously I've had people do this to me and it feels like SHIT. So please, if he's working on his recovery, leave him alone.
