      Chief Slappaho I personally don’t do any drugs and never have bc of lack of interest and being Muslim, HOWEVER if I did as a rational person I would never think oh yah let me try heroin literally one of the most addictive drugs on market.

      heroin isn't inherently "horrible", heroin abuse is horrible.
      If you only use it during retirement and its only a once every 5-10 year thing then that is responsible.
      If you are using it at age 20 then yes thats abuse and absolutely will ruin your life in 99.9% of cases.

      It’s a good question since the answer could have been yes when the person was thinking about it for a long time, had many addicted friends, has used other string substances etc. If that would have been the case, it would have been interesting to see if the person saw it coming. Also I think it’s a fair question since so many people at that school seem to be addicted.

(Don't respond to this question lol, I think I come off sounding a little creepy by asking) Maybe I was just ignorant but I never saw anyone at my elementary school do drugs before or even talk about selling drugs of any kind. There was never any talk about it among my group of friends or my classmate. When I got to highschool however was when I started hearing people talk about how this person or that person was doing this kind of drug or that kind. Some names came up that honestly shocked me and some people even confided in me that their acquaintances had made them uncomfortable by suggesting for them to try it too. Into my junior year of highschool was when I actually saw kids publicly smoking (I don't know what they were smoking or the terms, have never done it myself) but I remember being in the car just driving home with my sister and there would be some kids walking on the street parallel to me and they would be sharing something and then one of them looked me in the eye and I turned away. They were both not in my grade.

    Most people I know, and myself, excluding a very few, take heroin to get high. For me and the majority I know it just takes away the depression.
    I've tried numerous anti-depressants, benzos and a whole lot of therapy.
    The sad fact is that for some people, life just doesn't work out and no matter how hard we try it doesn't get better.
    Before anyone jumps on this I'd like to say that yes, I want a good job, a family and a life without heroin. I've in no way "given up".
    A lot of people claim all sorts of mental illness and depression these days, but believe me, when the real, worst thing hits you, it's not a call for attention or sympathy. You'll get rid of it anyway you can. So please don't think of us as junkies. We want the same as you, we just haven't got there yet.

    I feel less alone when I see this video... You know, I used to be the kind of intellectual guy, first of his class, until I break down and then break bad.
    My first drug was alcohol, and I liked it so much, I just said : "I wanna be on alcohol every fucking day, every minutes, every seconds.". It was a Jack Daniel's at the restaurant with my parents. I was 16. Then I smoked weed for the first time with a friend - but I didn't found it really cool, I had a bad trip... I was 17 then.
    At the age of 18 I discovered Valium, Xanax... I fall in love with them. It was so nice. I started to use it to be free from anxiety to do my studies. I didn't what would happen then... The addiction. It was my first year in college, really harsch. The next year, I started drinking, still 18 old years old. And I discovered codeine. It was so far better than weed ! I used to drop them like candies. Then I discovered morphine. First by oral. Far better than codeine ! Then I snorted the morphine. Then... I shot the morphine. Then it wasn't enough, my tolerancy was too high. At the age of 19 I shot heroin. At the same time I took cocaine for the first time, and shot it. And I continue drinking like a fish, - but I withdrawal from Valium, which I was hooked, at the psychiatric hospital.
    Then the cold turkey cames out... I just said to myself I had to go to a center. They gave me buprenorphine. I fixed myself with it when I wasn't on heroin. I was so afraid of withdrawal syndrome. I took Valium again, for the withdrawing of the IV cocaine - sometimes crack cocaine.
    Years passed and I tried to commit suicide, at 21, 5 years ago. I go to the psychiatric hospital. I was hooked on heroin, cocaine, I was drinking a lot, I took a bit of Valium, I took MDMA sometimes, and weed but only with alcohol and Valium.
    After that, I return to my parents' house. My mother cried when the doctor said to her that I was an addict. I really feel ashamed at this moment... I thought it was no use, I'd be an addict for life.
    Years passed. I snorted a bit of cocaine at my parents' house. I smoked a bit of weed. I snorted a bit of heroin but it didn't give me the high, as I was on a high dose of bupe. So I give up.
    I was sober from heroin and cocaine, but I was still drinking and taking Valium. I return to my studies but, unfortunately, because I had the money, and because I was no longer on a high dose on bupe because I reduced, I took 1 gram of heroin and 1 gram of IV cocaine and crack. At the moment, it was damn good. But after that, I was feeling so ashamed. I gave up.
    Now, I'm 26 in few months, I restart studies, I want to achieved my second year in college. I'm on bupe 0.4, no cocaine, no heroin at all. Just 3 Valium 10 mg per day and sometimes I drink... Sometimes I get drunk, but it's ok now. I'm finally practically sober.
    Now I pray for everyone in this world who has an addiction. It ruins my life. Because of depression, anxiety... Life is difficult. But sometimes it can be beautiful. You just have to wait for it. To pray for it...
    Thank you guys if you have reading this. I wish I wouldn't have take this shit... But that's life. I had problems, no I'm begininng to see light.
    Thank you all. God bless you my dears.

    I graduated from a high school about 20 minutes from here in 2016 on the Illinois side of the river. They’re not wrong when they say that affluent neighborhoods have the problem too. I have friends who know plenty of people in these boroughs who experiment with these things. Once you get to the Illinois side it’s even worse in some areas. I lost two friends from high school to heroin either during my four years or within one year after I graduated. This city has become a hub for heroin. I still remember the families that would come to speak at the high school each year. Talking about their sons and daughters who passed onward already due to heroin addiction. So much potential soiled and scattered. I feel for all of them. Cause I’ve seen what it does to people.

    This sounds like my school, we've already had several heroin deaths in the past few years, a couple coming from my own class which graduated in May 2016, I still remembering hearing about this kid named Connor, never really fit in, was considered kind of strange I guess but I never had a problem with him, only a few days after graduating I found out he'd taken a lethal injection of heroin to end his life, what still gets me is the fact that nobody seemed too bothered.

      You can get hooked on the high mentally and crave it. I've smoked every day for the last 4 years, smoked pretty consistently for about 8-9 and I can tell you it's not easy to quit after a while. I've used it as a crutch to de-stress from work/school for the day and when I'm having a bad day and don't have any weed, I go nuts. When I try to stop smoking, I get very bad night sweats as well (absolutely gross btw).
      But then again, weed effects people in different ways. What is a struggle for me to kick it, could be easy for the next person.

    • @JesusLover800
      @JesusLover800 7 лет назад +3

      Zombie Prodigy: My cousin and I smoked pot and experimented with psychedelics and dissociatives when we were teenagers. We used to talk a lot about drugs and how we thought all drugs should be legal in a free market, and although some people would die that was just natural selection playing out. We thought we were safe since we were smart enough to dose responsibly and avoid physical addictions, but sometime late 2016 he decided to try a research chemical opiate called U-47700. He died last July of an overdose after going through rehab and experiencing multiple other overdoses. Its really incredible how quickly opiates can take over someone, its like people completely lose control with them. Anyway, I'm just saying this because deep down I know your comment is valid, but it's really hard to accept it.

It's really a thing of "what numbs me from my problems the most" vs "i smoked some weed so I'm going to do coke" People pick the drug that makes them the most distant from their problems. Its not some stupid weed then this and that reaction.
