This is more of a question for those of you that have a decent amount of clean time under your belt.
I was wondering to myself, if I were diagnosed with a terminal illness if I would just say fuck it and get high on heroin as much as possible until I die. I'd like to think I'd remain sober if I were terminally ill and keep my mental faculties about me as much as said illness would allow. Im trying to think of a good reason why I shouldn't use if I were terminally I'll but I'm having a hard time coming up with anything. Sure I'd feel pride from the strong will it would take not to just give up and start using, but at the same time if I were withering away, fuck pride...right? I know for sure I'd rather go out on my own terms with a nice big OD even if I didn't start using regularly enough to get physically addicted again.
Is there any life altering situation that you think would make you use again?
Also an unrelated question that I don't feel like posting an entirely new thread for...
Those of you that have at least a year of clean time under your belt, do you feel like as time goes on it's gotten easier to stay clean? Do you think about using less/feel the chances of you slipping up and relapsing diminish as you accumulate more clean time?
