It really is surprising that your a heroin user and you are 'pro-heroin' regarding someone trying it for their first time. This is my opinoin, and thats all it is. I cant speak for others. Heroin...its ruined so many lives... I think saying 'why chance it' is pretty relevant. We are not talking about mushrooms or weed here. This is a drug with that tends to be HIGHLY addictive. It is very destructive in every aspect of a users life. It has realistic dangers. Overdoses do happen.
Obviously one use doesnt make you an addict. But choosing between using that one time or not at all can change your life. It is a major fork in the road. The chances of someone "trying" heroin just once is pretty slim. And if you do succeed what was the point. More importantly, what if you fail? Ive been on bluelight since long before I used heroin for the 1st time 7 years ago. I can think of a few members who started with an innocent curiousity, and confidence they could use recreationally. 1 year later these people were "heavy addicts." I see it online and in real life
I guess the reason I am even wasting time typing about this is because I saw it happen to me. In all honesty when I sparked a curiousity, nothing someone said would have changed my mind. I really did not think i would become an addict. Yes, there are acceptions, but the large majority will not use just once. This is not some acid trip.
I know you only use sporadically. I have been like you at times in my life but i dont think i ever had the control you do. For me its either legal problems, financial reasons, or a new bottom I am facing that puts a gap between my every day use.I really do enjoy using, but it has fucked so much of my life up. I started oxy "recreationally" when I was 21, since I was 23 I have been shooting dope and coke. I would much rather enjoy life without having the massive urge to use when i get paid. At times I feel like I dont have a choice. I am definitely an addict and "addicted" (though at the moment not physically for the 1st time in 7 years.)
I dont know. I just enjoyed life so much better before I was heavy into drugs. that being said, putting the negative consequences (which seem so frequent for me) aside, I can and will not lie. I love getting high.
I only make 800 a week and even using 2 days a week fucks my money up so bad. Maybe if I made more and I could manage using and living better id feel different.
I wish I was like you though psychedlic jay. That I only used on the weekends because thats what I WANTED to do. For me its like I enjoy it on the weekend so why not during the week? I just so happen to use on the weekends becuase I get paid friday. Up until may of this year I was using every day.
@jay just out of curiousity how long have you been using heroin? Props to you for keeping your use moderate.
